[QUOTE="Pebbleheed, post: 351736, member: 24344"] I had my D7100 attached to the inside of the glass in my car boot with a bracket to experiment with some in car shots. The camera, after a good while, got loose and fell in to the boot. It was cushioned so I calmly pulled over and went to get it. When I opened the boot however the camera bounced out and landed on the tarmac with a sickening thud. I've checked the camera over. It had a very slight chip on the body. Not at all big and I'm not fussed about that. However I've noticed now there appears to be a black mark in the view finder. It's not on the lens as I've changed that and it's still there. I've looked at the mirror, that looks fine and I've noticed this mark does not show on any photos. I suspect this is somehow affecting the view finder only and when I point the camera at the light the black mark lights up like a small chip. It's tiny and so I can ignore if it I really want to, but does anyone know what this is likely to be that's damaged and how much a replacement would be? Thanks [/QUOTE]
