Hi Bill,
I once owned that lens too, the focus ring is the one between the fixed mount
(with the red dot) and the aperture ring at the front. :-)
The whole focus ring rotates, there are no serrations since there is a little tab
that protrudes from the bottom of the ring. When you are holding the camera
lens combo the correct way the tab falls into a comfortable position for one
finger to pop into, it all becomes quite intuitive. See:
