Raymond,

It does indeed look as if your finder is defective. I assume that you have the 45 degree finder with a rubber finder occular.

This finder has a series of prisms inside and it is possible that it was dropped and some of the prisms are out of alignment. The worst case scenario would be if one of the prisms became de-cemented......

You can access the innards by removing the plate which holds the finder occular.

All the best,

Jan
