I have not worked with this lens, but I would suggest not to disassemble the
aperture blade assembly which could be difficult to reassemble precisely.

G'day,
Looks like I'll be cracking this lens (Kiron 105mm f/2.8 macro) open in
the near future to remove a load of rubbish from just in front of the
diaphragm. Got it off eBay recently and was very annoyed to find this
muck, but otherwise it's in pretty good nick and am keen to see the
results it can deliver.
Anyone here opened it up before? Any tips or warnings of things to be
careful of would be much appreciated. If anyone had a lens diagram that'd
be awesome too. By the way, is it normal to hear ?bearings? rolling around
in the lens?
