Hello maniacs! How to remove shutter release button outer ring , prior to removal top cover of FED-2 camera with collapsing lense ? Should I turn it clockwise or opposite or pull it up ? There is no any tiny screw there, like at speed dial setting knob..so think it has to be turned around someway..Thank you in advance for a tip..Zygi

If my memory serves me correctly, the outer ring of the shutter button unscrews counter clockwise. I've only taken one FED 2 apart once, but seem to remember that was how it came off.

Here is a link that should help you work your way thru taking the top off.
