Kostas,
Mine is still much in perfect shape. But then, there are ancient lenses
on which the aperture ring still works too. I guess reliability
isn't the
deciding factor then.
There are also ancient lenses on which the aperture ring has packed up
- like my A 1:1.7 50mm. If it had spent its life mounted on a modern
DSLR it would still be fine.
The sooner mechanical linkages are banned, the better. :-)
