I just got a G3 that I bought off Ebay and I have somehow gotten the DC58 stuck on the camera. I took it off then put it back on and I think I put it on the wrong way, without lining up the arrow correctly. Is this possible and if so, is there any way to get it off? Yes, I AM pushing the button by the lens ;-)a

Thanks
Todd

Check this thread (and a sub-thread):

Sounds like brute force and patience are your only options--ugh.

Thanks so much -- that did it. I just had to apply a little elbow grease and thankfully nothing broke. I can't believe Canon doesn't have that thing keyed so it's impossible to put it on the wrong way. Would save idiots who put it on incorrectly a lot of trouble ;-)a

Thanks
Todd

I think some folks have painted a small index marker on their adapter with nail polish, to help align it.
Glad it came off without damage!!!
