Yes a small section about 2 inches long removes from the lens and screws into the body. This piece also holds the rear filter. It then reattaches via a breech mount to the lens. Very workable system and not awkward at all. Much better than if you had to screw the body to the whole lens. JCO - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
