Have you checked that the aperture lever is not bent? That could be one
little
devil to make problems...:-)
Hmmm, it looks parallel to the protective flange. However, there _are_ two
parallel, diagonal scratches on the outside of the actuator. I'll take a
good look at the lever when I have the lens apart.
Also, it could be that lubrication from the focusing thread has migrated
onto the base of the aperture blades. This doesn't necessarily show
through the glass. That's what had happened to the one I owned. It's not
very difficult to take it apart and clean it, though. IIRC, the blades
can be accessed from the back, by removing the bayonet.
Thanks. From the back seems the consensus, so far. Thanks Jostein and Don!
