I have two lenses that came with ME Supers, 50mm F1.7.
One is clean but the aperture ring is sticky, it takes a lot of force to go below F8, more force than you would want to put on it so it's not just a nuisance but stops me using it. Another lens has the aperture ring running very nicely but has hazing inside.
So the question is whether these are things I can sort out myself or does doing this require some specialist knowledge or apparatus to recalibrate the lenses when put back together?
I am not sure it would be cost effective to pay to have it done, I'd probably just use another lens, but I would rather like to learn how to do it is it is deemed doable.
The one with hazing I knew about before I got it so I don't feel cheated, it came with an ME Super that didn't cost that much, but the meter was completely non operational when I tried it, however all it turned out to be was some corrosion on the battery cover inner surface, theres not even any corrosion in the battery compartment itself, after a clean it works fine.
