John,
If you can get to the archives, there is a lot of discussion of this
problem with a variety of creative solutions. You probably need to cut and
shorten the focus ring rubber, which is where the creative stuff comes in.
In general, for gluing leatherette and other things, I like Pliobond, a
very aromatic ;-) contact cement.
