The apertures are widened to 7p.  While you have your
scale out, why don't you weigh your Sputnik?  My Sputnik
is still heavier than your Realist.  But it has seen some 
of John B's modifications... Maybe the extra work to 
eliminate the light leaks and reduce the light flare 
have added extra weight in the Sputnik.
