I went through the 55mm macro page with interest.I bought a Nikon AF55mm f2.8D about 5 years ago, it had sticky aperture blades when I got it. I didn't really know what I was getting myself into, but I started to pull it apart to see if I could do anything. I didn't go too far, only enough to expose the aperture blades and manually move them a few times. Whatever I did, it seems to have solved the problem, it has worked great ever since, and has become one of my favourite lenses.I would love to strip it down fully and service it properly, but I am a bit daunted by whats inside, and my eyesight is not what it used to be.</blockquote>
