Nothing like the sensor, something that you'd want to have minimum contact with.. I actually thought that the mirror is the easiest to damage not just because by touching it you can put it out of alignment, but because I thought that the reflective material is on the front of the mirror as opposed to being behind glass which would protect it. I was taught to never touch the mirror, but I cleaned the focus screen on my old OM-1 many times. Bob
