It appears that each time I remove the normal 24mm lens, it becomes harder and harder (yes, I am pushing up on the release tab and the tab does operate the release latch properly). Even mounting it seems to be increasingly stiff each time.

Physically, the 24mm is the smallest and hardest to grasp compared to the 18 and 50.

I'm glad the bayonet is metal - plastic would've broken by now.

Any idea what is going on? The other lenses are much easier to remove.

I feel I should be taking a cloth and small wrench with me to remove this lens - the amount of force required doesn't seem normal.
