I found 2 black dots on the right bottom corner of my viewfinder, is that on the actual viewfinder or mirror?

i've cleaned sensor just now, there is no spot on the lens itself, my best guess would be viewfinder, since i couldn't see anything on the mirror surface, then again, i couldn't be sure. what do you guys think? if it's indeed on the viewfinder, it won't affect photo, will it?

slightly blow in there and see if it goes away. MOst of my spots have not been on censor but on the mirror or the focusing thing above the mirror.

It is the viewfinder.......dirt on the sensor won't show up on your viewfinder. So does dirt from the mirror (I think).

The recommended solution: Leave it be.

Viewfinder or focussing screen. If it was on the mirror it'd be very diffuse/out of focus.
