Hi everyone!

Does anyone have any experience with "fixing" the focusing of a said lens? I got one pretty cheap but the focusing is a tiny bit rough at lower distances, like 7 feet and down.

Is it possible to take it apart and sort of "grease it up" to give it a nice even feel or is it possible that it's more of a physical thing, i.e the gears of the focusing thing is worn out or something.

Also, the aperture ring is quite stiff... possible to give it some new grease in cases like these to fix the problem?

Thanks!
