It’s on the inner VF glass and it’s like a peeled bright spot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.noctilux Posted February 21, 2021 Share #4 Posted February 21, 2021 If this spot bothers you when you use the camera, ask a tech if it's possible to get rid of it. If not, just use happily your M. M4-2 or M4-P ? curious as I never had the "separation prism" on those when I used them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a wiped spot on a dusty or foggy surface. It doesn’t bother me while shooting. But honestly it does just being there. Have no idea what it is? it’s an M4-P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The diagonal glass is cemented together and what you describe could be the result of a separation process. I would personally get the opinion of a competent repair tech - one that is capable of re-cementing should that be necessary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it checked by a pro. It’s a serious problem that gets worser by time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
