If the camera was stored with relatively high humidity, I would assume fungus. There are only a few surfaces that would show up, on the mirror, on the focusing screen(which is removable in case there is fungus on the top of it. Also the prism which would be a rare occurance and not have any impact on photos, and the last place where fungus could show up in the VF is the inside of the eyepiece. That is harder to get to and would require a camera tech do it. Does the white area get blurrier if you adjust the Dioptor adjustment near the eye piece.  If it doesn't the smudge in on the inside of the eyepiece.  If it gets get blurry, it is on the mirror, focusing screen or pentaprism.  Good luck!</p></blockquote><p></p>
