Hi. I recently purchased an Aires 35 V rangefinder outfit with 3 Aires lenses and other OEM accessories, all in an Aires dedicated 35 V leather field case . Sadly, the Coral 4.5cm 1.5 lens had aperture issues with one blade off track. I decided to try and repair it, so I totally disassembled it and cleaned everything. Now, it is time to reassemble after taking several weeks to do some emergency home repairs. I only took one picture of the lens partially apart; I know, I should have taken more. If I can get the aperture assembly back together correctly, I have got the rest. It is complex and my one picture does not show the blade orientation too well. Has anyone ever done a repair like this that can share some advice or images?
