Hi while on holdiay my 50mm flew out of my camera case and landed on the floor as it got caught in the strap. It is optically fine but the focus ring will not turn. How do you take these apart so I can try and fix this I cannot see any screws to get it apart but I am sure you must be able to.
 
Im pretty sure they strip down from the front element using a ring screw (50mm f1.8)
