He told me he couldn't easily open the aperture complex because its all glued together. >> Didier, at this point I think it might be wise just to have them send the lens back to you, and then use it as it is. Your comment that the aperture blades seemed to be "slightly uptighted (only sometimes)" leads one to think it might be a minor problem that you could live with. Kind of like a car with a radio antenna that wont retract, just a nuisance. The repair people have not done anything so their charges should not be high. Just use the lens and keep it off of the middle console of your car when going around curves. :-) Regards, Paul Connet
