Thanks Rodolphe, 

I wondered if that small Allen key was part of the picture. It says on mine it`s for adjusting the back focal length from the standard CS lens one? I`ll look at it in the cool of the evening-must be near 100 degrees F here now (Australia!)

There is a small hole at the bottom of the camera directly under the ring. The camera should have come with a small Allen key taped to a piece of paper (yellow in my case) explaining how to tighten the screw to lock the ring.

The Allen key is a 1/28 inch one (0.035" from the scorpion Getting Started manual).
