yes all of this was before I asked this question. I did find where the sensor is...and moving the mirror back does not affect the sensor. You have to use a menu function that will hold the shutter open and the sensor is behind that. so I believe the sensor is in fine shape. Just this view finder pentaprism is dirty. it does work fine. So I will take it to a professional to see if they can clean or replace the viewfinder items. I just took at 30 second out of focus picture of a white piece of paper and zoomed in as I viewed it with paintshop pro...it looks clean as a whistle..no spots or anything that I can tell. SO lets hope I have not messed anything else up.
I do appreciate the warnings and advise, which I will...from now on...adhere to!!!!!!!!!!!!!
