With a Nikon you hold the lens with your right, and your right index finger will brush up against the release, a little pressure and you can press the release and rotate the lens with the same hand. Some Canons can do this, some block the release from the front, so you have to do it as Cotty describes. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
