I had to send that lens in for CLA every few years just to get rid of the stickiness in the auto diaphragm due to lube oil accumulating at the fringes of the blades. No trouble at all with my leica lenses. small world - i had the same problem also (and only) with the micro nikkor 55 - i first thought, it could be humidity, because the "wet apperture blades" came in winter, when i left my camera equipement from time to time over night in the cold car and then brought it into warm rooms... warning: i tried, to "repair" the problem by myself - and destroyed the lens... :-(( regards, thomas böhm _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
