This video shows how one can disassemble, repair, and reassemble these Promaster MC and Marexar CX MC 28mm 2.8 lenses. The problem is not always the aperture but more likely just the mechanism in the read mount that gets sticky from old grease.

The Mamiya Sekor 35mm f/2.8 is a nice little M42 lens suitable for landscape photography. It is also very sharp stopped down. Having the M42 mount is really nice because it can mount on almost any Digital SLR with an adapter ring easily found on Ebay!
