Hmmm.... I just tried this with both bodies (slightly different "editions", btw) and maybe my fingers are just too stubby. With some work, I can get one to do it, but the other ...argghh! :-) Even when I get the button pushed down sufficiently, the ring seems hard to turn. Maybe it's just my cameras. I seem to have much better luck with the "lift and turn" set.
