There's something wrong with my camera!!! I put in my macro lens, and now I can't get it out! It went in perfectly fine, but now it twists about 1/4 inch, and won't go any farther. I have no idea what to do. Anybody have this happen before??? Think it's a lens problem? Or a camera problem? It twisted in and locked into place just fine, so I don't understand?????

Don't force it. Take it to a camera shop on Monday and have somebody who (should) know what they're doing take a look at it.

Well it's not the macro lens that's for sure! ;-)

Does it go back to the mounted position OK? If so, mount it and without forcing anything, try removing the battery and see if something disengages. Could be the lens is stopped down or otherwise engaged or the mirror is locked up. If that doesn't work , strangehost's suggestion is very good. Don't force anything.
