Bring the lens and body together at the dots. Make sure the body dot and the lens dot are matching, "connect the dots" if you will.

Once you placed the lens inside the body, turn the lens to the right and it should snap in.
5
To remove, place your finger on the large button to the right of the lens and twist left, bringing the dots back together, then pull out.
