As a follow up to my focus lens issue thread I thought it best to start a new thread on this minor issue.
I seem to have accumulated a lot of dust/debris inside the viewfinder although it's not a problem to the finished images it is extremely annoying now I know I can live with it and most likely will have to but I've 2 Nikon dslr's now and both suffered from this (after I took possession of then one a used d3200 and my current new from d5300).
Is it possible to clean easily inside the view finder, I can see there's a small screw on the back just near the viewing lens and I'm wondering if that comes out?, there's another lens that seems fixed behind the focus ring and I'm guessing that's a no entry option?
Also where does all this stuff come from?, I can only assume that Nikon have a poor standard of finish to this area or at least on the entry models and that this stuff is already inside the viewfinder and works its way down onto the fixed lens near the focus lens?
