I've repaired a number of the A50/1.7 lenses.
The most common issue was the leaf spring being
separated from the body because of the plastic
aperture ring.
Keeping track of that detente bearing
was sometimes difficult. In the end, the
best way that I found was to just smear
some of the lens

Ah, I see.
This is clearly a task best left to people who know what they're doing.
I thought maybe, for once, it might be a reasonably simple fix. I'll
just leave it be and use it as an M lens until I find that Free Lens
Repair place nobody's been talking about.
Thanks to all for the input!
Thanks, Collin.
I'll keep that in mind if I should decide to take up the task one day.
But, based on what I've read so far, I should probably leave things well
enough alone until the day I'm swimming in A 50/1.7's and don't mind
losing one or two.

Feeler gauge is exactly what I was thinking - the flat blade type, not,
obviously, the wire type. The flat blades will give you some pretty
thin options.

I guess it's just that the shot didn't look the way my eye saw it at the

get it closer to what I was seeing. Maybe a couple of days' worth of
