Last message wasn't as clear as it could have been.

Showed my wife what I was talking about, took the lens shade off, and handed 
the camera to her.  Without the lens shade for leverage, she had no problem 
unscrewing the front of the lens.  Had her retighten it to what she felt was 
finger-tight, and it *almost* lined up with the hood as it should have.

Seems like a no-go in this condition though.  When I'm out shooting and 
swapping lenses I tend to grab the camera around the lens shade, and if it'll 
get screwed up this easily it's likely to happen when I'm shooting and I'll 
find that light isn't getting to the negative like it should.

*sigh*

If this isn't an easy fix, can someone estimate cost and turn-around time?
