Here it is:

(feel free to edit my post, when I add a link here it looks ok in preview and bad after posting).


I have bought an otherwise nice CZJ 300mm/4 in P6 mount, but the aperture blades were stuck open.
I had read contradictory information before doing it myself; the most scary of it being to have to open the lens from the front.
I have succeeded to open it from the back and unstuck and clean to some extent the blades.

I hope it helps others.

Hi Chris, links and photo links areinactive in first posts as a spam prevention measure, they should work now.
