Viewfinder fogging?
Any tips? I accidentally breathed down my VF tube, fogging it up, and when I tried to wipe it with a microfiber cloth, ended up making a smeary mess. Had to use multiple bits of lens tissue to clear it up. Must be a better way. Any chemical to use to prevent?

I’m not sure about preventing it… but my best quick fix once it’s happened is to do the reverse. Put your mouth close to the eyepiece and suck – sort of the opposite of whistling. Draws cooler surrounding air across the diopter and usually de-fogs things enough to keep shooting.
