I've got a decent condition Canon FL 55/1.2, but it's aperture ring grinds along and need quite some force to move.
Would fixing this mean just a clean and a bit of grease or am I looking at something more serious do you think? |

It's a nice lens, and relatively easy to take apart. It may have no lubricant left, it may have grit or broken parts in it, or it may have some mechanical wear. Good luck - I've taken the back apart on one of these, and it's relatively simple, but I'm not sure about the aperture ring. |
