    Finally pulled my mark 2 out of the box and it has a strange line that can be seen in the middle of the mirror.... is this normal?

    Did you move the camera around in the light and it stays in that spot o the mirror? it looks like some other highlights are also reflect too. These reflections are coming off the focusing screen above but you are also getting quite a bit of light bounced into the mirror box. I would be curious to see without the light shinning straight in if the reflections are still there. If its a reflection im not surprised, if it is a scratch or something else that would not be normal.
