Remove RotaSlide Ring from Lens

The biggest issue with this design is it is possible to cross-thread, which might be happening. If you can get one of those jar opener rubberized films or something of the like and hold onto the recessed board area of the lens where the red dot is, you could get a better grip. Maybe slightly rocking etc. I’m sure others have a better idea but that’s all I can think of right now.
Worst case you could remove the lens from the board entirely and then the lens will be out of the way

Use rubber gloves and try to fix the R camera somehow on your desk so it does not move and then with the rubber gloves on try to touch the top part of the lens board on as many aeras at the same time as you can and then slowly try to turn it. DO NOT turn it by holding the shutter or the lens. Just work with the lensboard.
