Hi, again!
Look through the lens,
at the moment you're turning the aperture
ring from 3,5 (on the ring) to 5,6
the aperture closes immediately a bit (3,5 -> 4,5).
The real 3,5 is only when the ring is 
just on 3,5 position, on other ring positions
(5,6; 8; 11...)
the aperture stays closed to 4,5. 

Regards,
Zbigniew
