Ricoh 500G focusing ring

[paullouisnelson]

hi.


I have a ricoh 500g and the focusing ring is getting looser and looser...I saw a post about this earlier but no detailed responses.

How would i go about tightening the ring. I think theres only two screws on either side of the shutter speed ring...... i imagine this is the key to my solid lens barrel but i dont want to get inside tehre and screw my camera entirely....

any advice..... detailed as possible... images.... anything.. im rough on cameras for sure but i want to have it solid for the time being! thanks.

Can you post a photo of the camera that shows a closeup of the lens?

Are there screws missing from the lens barrel at all? I hope you're able to find a solution as that's a nice little camera.
