When looking in viewfinder I see some kind
of very small spot - it looks like piece of dust
is on the lenses.
However lenses are clean and this spot can
be seen with other lenses too.
What can it be?
P.S. All images are OK.

Nothing to worry about. A speck of dust probably worked its way into the prism area or the focusing screen.

You might try gently blowing on the focusing screen with compressed air or a hand blower. If you're lucky, that will dislodge it. However, I've read that the screen is VERY soft so do not touch it with anything.

Like I said, its only an annoyance.
