Hi all,
first of all I would like to introduce myself, my name is Luis and I am a photographer based in London.
I recently bought a Fujica 35 EE (in fact two) and both have stuck aperture blades. The first one the blades do not open at all they are stuck at f22, hence I bought a second one, which second time unlucky the blades are stuck at f8, they won't go past f8 to open completely. I thought about trying to give it a try and fix it myself, I know about the lighter fluid trick but the problem is, the back element of the lens. I am trying to avoid dismantling it because of course the shutter mechanism is all built into it. So any suggestions welcome.
Thank you so much,
Luis
