cleaning

So i am getting my cleaning kit to clean my sensor - after reading all the posts, tutorials & advice, it shouldn't be too much of an issue, unless I sneeze whilst cleaning & the sudden movements that come with sneezing will make me scratch the sensor....so knock on wood no issues with that...

The viewfinder/eyepiece that you look into seems to have a couple of specks of dust on it on the inside (kind of bizarre, since i didn't actually change the lens at all and noticed dust in there & on the sensor. Is it easy to clean that too, or is there a more complex issue with it? I am hoping that a quick, light blast from the rocket blower will remove all that stuff....

A rocket blower will be fine to clean the focusing screen (if that's what you mean by the viewfinder, although if you mean the outer part that is also OK to wet clean. Do not wet clean the focusing screen - as I understand it they are very easily scratched, and the texture on it might pull lint off of a pecpad anyway.

Yes, sorry, my fault on saying "viewfinder"...I meant the inside of the focusing screen...but no wet cleaning eh? I will keep that in mind!!

Thanks
