That's exactly what my 5D2 has, it's only visible in certain lighting conditions (like maybe 1% of the time). I think its normal (well at least I hope it is)

I think its normal (well at least I hope it is) This is visible 100% of the time in any lighting condition and its just not quite uniform enough to be deliberate with one side of it lighter then the other, my betting is its a greasy mark on the focusing screen picked up during the manufacturing process.

wssbkfix Hatchling 1 post Joined Apr 2020 More info | I would suggest this is the most likely candidate. I have an RF mirror less and a gray circle was in the middle of my viewfinder. Perfect circle. Didn't stop me from shooting but it was a distraction. The gray circle appeared when my camera was connected to my computer. I was on this tread when I saw the spot metering being mentioned. Gave it a try and the circle went away. W Scott Simpson
