Troubleshooting
Cap is difficult to attach or remove.
Ensure there are no obstructions on the camera mount or the cap itself. Check that you are using the correct cap for your G Mount camera. If it feels forced, do not apply excessive pressure; inspect for alignment issues.

Confirm you have twisted the cap fully until it locks into place. If it remains loose, there might be a defect, and it's advisable to check its condition or consider a replacement.
