I guess I should read the manual. I didn't even know that the lens had a manual(M) zoom mode. My zoom ring does not move past the stops at the ends of the range. There's a very solid stop at both ends like any MF Zuiko lens.

Re the DZ 12-50, is it normal for the zoom ring to 'slip' past the zoom
extremes when in M-ZOOM?  My example does this.

The ring moves against the stops only in E-ZOOM and locks in MACRO as expected.

thanks in advance,

My JJC LH-J55C also fit and locks on both lenses quite securely.  There
is a "hump" near the end which you must push through to lock it.

Thanks Moose, that was it, it actually required quite a bit more force to
click on than the LH-55B, so all secure now.

I received my JJC LH-J55C recently and find that it's quite a loose

anyone else had this problem ?  Have you done anything to fix it ?
For the time being I've reverted to the LH-55B.

Turned all the way on? There's a click at the end with mine, on both 12-50
and 9-18. May have been a little stiff, first time? And it is then on
firmly. It it isn't quite square to the camera, it's not turned all the way
on.

I bought a second, so as to have one for each lens, and both fit securely.
If yours doesn't, it's faulty, and should be returned.

I'm loving the way it reverses on the 9-18, a real space and fuss saver in
my bag.
