ok..i have successfully removed the lens. i have been messing with it all afternoon and got exhausted fooling with it so i set it down and right before i'm getting ready for bed i picked the camera up to put in the camera bag and gave it a final twist for the night and it came right off..go figure..thanks for everyones help...tomorrow i'll give it run with some test shots and see what kind of trouble i might have with the shutter? hopefully it was the lens that was making the shutter respond the way it was.

The ring is black and I can see the red dots for aligning the lens but it doesn’t move. I’ve turned it on and triggered the shutter to see if it would release but that didn’t work..I noticed though that in order to trigger the shutter I have to press twice. It’s like it’s stuck in bulb mode.

Honestly I have no clue. I’m am not familiar with the canon lenses as this was given to me. The camera came with additional lenses with the release button on those but not on the one currently on the camera. The one that i can’t get off the camera was already on there when I got It.

I was given a T70 and it has this lens on it (description below) without the lens release button. I can’t seem to get the lens off the camera. Is there a trick to getting it off or did the previous owner put a lens on that I’m going to have to force off and hope for the best? Macro mc zoom 67 M850231503 GEMINI 1:3.5-4.5 35-200mm
