Anaes Posted December 18, 2020 Share #1 Posted December 18, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) I just bought a used M5 and discovered a large translucent stain in the upper end of the rangefinder window. I tried to gently wash the outside of the glass, but it seems to be on the inside. Does anyone know what it is and potentially how bad or harmless it is for the rangefinder window? Should I try to return the camera or can I possibly fix it myself? Welcome, dear visitor!

jaapv Posted December 18, 2020 Share #2 Posted December 18, 2020 If the VF window is in this state one can but wonder about the condition of the rest of the camera. It looks like moisture, which is bad news. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
