Dear Zuikoholics,
I need your expertise and help once more :

I was offered a beautiful 1.2 / 50 mm lens in A+ condition without any
signs of use from a private owner
- and that is the problem :
Unfortunately the diaphraghm is sticky and opens very slowly ( 0.5 sec -
1 sec).
This 'feature' even does not dispappear after enforced and repeated
operation ( 100 - 200 times).
What would you advise me ?
Can it be fixed easily ?
Can it be fixed by oneself provided the necessary patience and care ?
What would be the approx. cost of repair ?
What would be a reasonable price to buy this lens with this fault ?

Please reply directly to oiwert@xxxxxxx


With best wishes
Olaf Iwert
