[OM] 35-70 Lens Question

Hi folks,

Hope someone can help with a quick question. I just received a 35-70mm, 1:3.5-4.5 that shows signs on the filter ring of being dropped. That made me start looking closer at the lens and I noticed that, at the 35mm setting, the aperture doesn't open up all the way when set for f5.6 to f22. Just estimating, it opens to f4.5 and stops. At the 70mm setting, the aperture opens all the way, no matter the fstop setting. Is this the way the thing is designed to work? I'm not sure why but I would have thought it would have been just the opposite.

Later,
Johnny
