Today is a bad day

I'm in shock this afternoon!

Not sure what has happened but for some reason the aperture on my 35/1.4 ais nikkor refuses to stop down. The aperture ring is rotating smootly, but it remains wide open all the time.

Any suggestions on how to solve?

Don't worry much , this is rare with Nikon, but sometimes happen. I think you need to clean blades only.

Thanks atilla.
Anyone knows of any disassembly and internal cleaning guide for nikkors? maybe i should try with a cheap lens first as i have never cleaned aperture blades before.

or should i contact this guy as i read good reviews, and don't want to mess my lenses up. www.kamera-service.info
