Alirght, heres the deal,

I was cleaning my Letus Extreme, the Mount end of it, and I was cleaning the glass with a lens cloth and accidently pushed to hard and popped the glass back into the adapter.

Now, I had to open it up to get it out and noticed that it was just glued in there.

First of all, has this happened to anyone else before, or am I a retard?

Secondly, should I just glue it back in?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Cheers,

Andrew.

You can, very carefully glue it back in. Or send it back to letus direct.

Thanks mate,

I will take it to a Pro camera shop and get them to glue it back in.

No way Im sending it back to Letus, will cost me an arm and a leg and take weeks and weeks (from Australia).

Make sure you DON'T use super glue, or similar, which has elements that can damage the focussing screen or other optics

Yeah the guys at Letus told me exactly what to buy.

Any chance you'll share the secret? :) Seems like a nice thing to have in my bag, should something happen in the field.
