I have a Sears branded Minolta MD mount 28-70 f3.5-4.5 zoom on which the diaphram has gotten slow. The actuating arm seems fine its just slow to stop down. I've tried removing the lens mount from the back but cannot access the entire linkage. I removed the trim ring from the front, but the lens won't budge. Can anyone tell me the best way into this lens to clean the aperture blades?
