The inside of my optical viewfinder on my Panasonic pv-dc2590 has a spot on it. I want to take it apart to clean it but don't know if opening the camera would damage it. Not knowing much about digital cameras I would appreciate some assistance. I'm mechanically inclined and can put it back together, that's not the issue here. My concern is whether there is anything light sensitive when I open the case.
Thanks for any help.

As always, this camera repair forum is for classic film cameras built well before digital cameras were even on the drawing board. Again as always, our suggestion is to return the camera to a qualified service person for repair.
