@iphone897 since you can still record it sounds like the issue is isolated to the viewfinder. Possibly a bad display. Start off with the [document|28490] service manual. Disassemble the viewfinder and check the circuit board and ribbon cables that connect it. If this look okay I would try a replacement viewfinder CRT next.
