I don't know of a camera where you can see two mirrors from the lens  
opening.

The sensor is behind the mirror and behind the shutter curtain in a  
DSLR. Generally you access it from the bulb setting for the shutter  
with a fully charged battery and a locking shutter cable, or from a  
special cleaning setting on the menu with a plug in power supply.  
Each option flips the mirror out of the way and opens the shutter so  
you can get to the sensor.
