Hi, I have a Tokina AT-X Macro 90mm (AIS, manual focus). The aperture blades dont come down when activated. My guess is its just got disconnected. I can get my money back, but I love the lense so much, and it didnt cost me much - so I'd like to try and fix it myself.
Never fixed a lense before and just ordered some good quality NIWA XPT srewdrivers to open it with (after reading this forum). Can anyone give me any tips on dismantling this lense? I might start with my old Nikon E Series 50mm first - to be on the safe side. Any help most welcome.

Thanks.
