Jason’s workshops notes:

The aperture blades on this camera had developed some stickiness, which would have caused them to seize over time if left unserviced. Additionally, a small amount of lens fungus was found on the inner lens element; this was carefully treated with UV light to eliminate any growth and then cleaned with lens-safe alcohol. All lens surfaces are now immaculate, restored to a pristine, like-new condition.
