Hi All,
My first post here.
I have an old Pentax ME Super, the aperture adjusting ring of which is starting to jam when it is turned. Any ideas? Might it need some lubrication? The camera has never been serviced.

Note your ME Super can also use similarly not over priced smc-Pentax-K, smc-Pentax-M, and smc-Pentax-A series lenses. The "A" series also provides Shutter Priority mode that your camera does not have but the lenses work fine and are readily available.
