Hello!

On my Rollei Planar 80mm f/2.8 lens the aperture ring has some play in it and is slightly loose. So far it seems to work fine, but it feels like it will just eventually get worse and i wonder if that is a simple fix i could do myself as i am reasonably technical and meticulous. however, i have no idea where i would even start with it. the glass and all the rest of the lens seem not directly linked to this ring and it rather seems as if it is just loosened inside and would simply need some tightening up. has anyone of you ever done something like that and has some advice?

thanks in advance for your time!
