It does seem quite common!

Is that mold on the bayonets?
why is there pincushion in the finder?

thanks

I think it may be some type of corrosion/oxidization/pitting.. don’t think it’s mold- it does not scrape or wipe off.

The prism finder does exhibit slight pincushion distortion when viewing through. It’s not distracting or nearly as noticeable looking through it with the naked eye - I think the wide angle phone camera exaggerates it.

Thanks for your questions- let me know if you have any others.
