Comments about Nikon DK-17M Magnifying Eyepiece:

I recently added this to my new 1.5 magnifying viewfinder on my D700 and found it to be a great addition.

Great for those with glasses but also very useable for those without.
It can also be folded back on itself when not required which is handy.

My only issue is that it can come off quite easily. My can was hanging by my side on a Sniper strap and when I went to use it the camera rubbing on my leg cause it to come off.

That said the benefits outweigh the negative.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about Nikon DK-17M Magnifying Eyepiece:

    With the normal eyepiece I found that I had to squint my eye upwards and to the side through the viewfinder. After an hours' photoshoot I really felt the eyestrain. This eyepiece helps work longer - more because it is set off the back by a few mils rather than the enlargement. I actually installed this a wee while ago and had forgotten all about it in the intervening 7000 photos - that must be a good sign.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Nice eyepiece

    By BillyFan

    from Dundee

    Pros

    • Easy to attach
    • make your camera looks better

    Cons

    • a bit trouble for who wear glasses

    Best Uses

      Comments about Nikon DK-17M Magnifying Eyepiece:

      It increases viewfinder magnification by approximately 1.2x and helps your manual focus in certain degree. It does help but not too much (mostly, make me think I can focus easier). I personally more rely on the focus indicator in the view finder.

      Also, if you are wearing glasses like me, you might get a little bit trouble seeing the whole scene through this eyepiece. Not too much difficult, but a bit inconvenient.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

      By PaulPhoto

      See all my reviews

      Pros

      • makes your view much clearer
      • simple to fit

      Cons

      • Not cheap but worth it

      Best Uses

        Comments about Nikon DK-17M Magnifying Eyepiece:

        Such a simple idea you have to wonder why Nikon does not fit this as standard on all the D3 range!
        Boosts the perceived image size by a mag of 20% and makes it much easier to check focus and to read the in viewfinder display.
        May seem pricey for the size but compared to the camera you fit it to... itís peanuts & well worth that little extra ;-)

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
