If nobody has responded yet:
Is it an original - unmodified lens and do you intend to use it as such or convert it to some DSL or mirrorless? Is it stuck opened, closed or with leaves misaligned? Does the push rod on the mount (the one that closes the aperture) respond or is it stuck too(if you try it do it lightly, excessive force can inflict damage )
This was more the technical side, and secondly are you sure the cost of parts and repair and risks due to transportation are worth it, I presume it stuck wide open as they more often do, if it's stuck fully or partially closed mending the defect is imperative.
Me and a close friend do provide restoration services to a limited (as neither of us has enough time to spare - we do not do it fulltime) number of orders and do have channels to obtain "hard to find" parts and or custom manufactured mechanical replacements ( mechanical mainly as optical parts are very rear and expensive), always with quality exceeding the original parts. We both have extensive experience and knowledge and will mend your lens with great care. If you are still looking for that kind of service, attention to detail and strive for perfection ( this sounds like a prewritten pitch, but it's not, just came up with it ) write me a PM to discuss the matters further. |
