View finder dust ?

When I look through the eye piece view finder, I can see what looks like dust. Very small in two places but it bugs me. Changed lenses not that. Clean the eye piece with a approved cloth, still there. Any suggestions?? Thanks

the dust you see is located in the mirror/focus screen area (which you can see when the lens is NOT attached).  You can use a blower and blow out the dust.  Don't use a lens brush as the focus screen is highly susceptible to scratches.

 

Normally the viewable dust is not a factor to image quality (like the dust on the sensor).
