I don't get it. I guess I am just an unlucky SOB. Bought another 1.4 off Ebay making sure to ask whether the Iris works - and this one doesn't work. Any ideaS?

The Canon lenses are pretty easy to disassemble to clean the diaphragm - I got a beautiful minty f/1.4 SSC for $14 from KEH because the aperture was sticky, and I don't think it took 20 minutes to fix it.

Email me for sketches..... please specify whether this is a Breechlock or a Bayonet style barrel.
