Dust on the viewfinder, Nikon DF. Best way to clear?

[rich_]

Hi everyone.

I have some dust spots on my viewfinder at the top left 1/4, maybe two dots when I look through. Is it a case of taking bits apart to clear those or would I need to lock the mirror somehow and blow some air up around there? Sorry I'm not very good with DSLRs

Thanks!

I'd just ignore them - it's only the viewfinder.

Give it a blast with a rocket blower with the mirror down.

I would be careful of doing that,you could end blowing more muck about than was already their

Thanks for the tips! I'll give it a gentle blast with the mirror down. I'd rather it didn't have the spots if possible.

I'm still trying to appreciate DSLR viewfinders, but I think I'll always prefer a rangefinder or at a push a decent EVF for my needs.
