Got a tiny spec on view finder on my Canon DSLR

Folks,

A tiny spec somehow managed to make its way on the viewfinder. The image quality has not suffered, but that tiny spec ( same as the size of those focus dots ) is quite irritating. I haven't yet figured out as how to clean it, any advice?

Yup its Rebel XT.

You mean inside the viewfinder?
How is that possible? Did not know it can enter inside a viewfinder.

BTW, why will IQ suffer from that spec buddy?

I am sure if it is on viewfinder, you can clean with a soft cloth/microfiber cloth or similar.

Make sure it isn't a spec on your lens filter or your lens.

^^^Errrr... how is dead pixel on LCD related to viewfinder?

does the rebel xt have a mirror mechanism? could be the cause

Since it is not effecting the Image quality, it is for sure a dust particle in the viewfinder...

Just get in clean with the help of microfiber cloth...
Or if u afraid of doing for yourself, take it to canon service center..
They will do this small thing for free [I guess, they should do for free]
