Introduction and question

[ray_scrafield]

<p>Hello all, I am new here but have been into picture taking for many years. I live in an area that is very conducive to great picture taking. The beach around Huntington Beach is phenomenal. I used to use a Canon A-1 but since digital photography came in, it is so much cheaper to go through the learning curve. My question here is this. Years ago, I bought a Vivitar 100-300 zoom/macro lens. In order to use it on the A-1 I had to install a TX mount. Now, I have a Nikon D40 and I want to try using the lens on that camera. I have the necessary mount for the Nikon but I can't for the life of me remember how to take the TX mount off of the lens. Can anybody give me some advice? I have played with this thing for two days but can't get it to come off.<br>

Thanks for any help,</p>

<p>Ray</p>
