Removable lens is stuck [ New ]

[lisetteb532]

The removable lens of my hero 7 black is absolutely stuck. I've tried the trick with the creditcard in between the lens and the camera but it is not moving at all. So far it's taken me so much time and sore fingers.

I want to use my camera with the supersuit so I really have to get the lens off..

I finally got it off! Turns out the trick with the creditcards was a two person job.. There has to be an easier way to do this though..

Pull and twist counter clockwise (left)

Hi @lisetteb532

Though not officially from GoPro, you may refer to this video as a guide.

Thanks!

Thank you for the reply! I watched so many videos, but when I pull my lens, no matter how hard, it just won't come forward, let alone that I can twist it..
