hay guys went to the camera store today and the guy sold me the rocket cleaner and he made me very nervous using it but the sensor is all cleaned now he told me the first mirror when you take the lens off is for the view finder that's what i see. the one under that is the one for the sensor after reading here people say not to touch the mirror well when he was explaining it he flipped the view finder mirror to show me the small one. i hope he did not take anything out of adjustment ;-)a but the camera pictures look allot better after using the rocket ;-)a

thanks
Jason

. . . or the secondary mirror that directs light to the AF sensors, and hangs down under (at right angles to) the primary mirror.
