If the screen won't come out through the lens mount like the OM-single
digits series, I think you have to remove the camera top and prism... I'm
not sure I would try that at home. Since its likely an OM-10 isn't worth the
cost of a CLA, it might be the best solution is to just use it, or sell it
and then buy a clean one for the minimum difference in cost... Dirt in the
finder won't affect the pictures or metering anyway.
