It has no obvious unscrewables or unclippables.

any help would be very much appreciated.

the retaining screw can be removed with a flexiclamp. i'm not sure if one for the fujis is available commercially; you may have to make it yourself. one made for leicas may fit, but they're probably not large enough.

you best bet is to make a friction wrench with a dowel, contact cement, and a wooden dowel.
 
Okay, thanks. I got it open.

The reason i was trying to open it in the first place was to fix a rattle.

I found this piece

What is it and where is it suppose to be?

thanks again.
 
hmm. It doesn't seem to fit on the tube in any way. But the lens leading into the prism box has a hole in it, and seems to have some glue spots on it that match the loose Piece.

What kind of glue should I use? I know some glues can fog up lenses. I'm thinking silicone?
