## Overview

The Nikon DK-17M Magnifying Eyepiece is a premium accessory designed for full-frame DSLRs, providing a 1.2x magnification for enhanced viewing. Compatible with various models, it ensures easy installation and superior optical performance, making it an essential tool for serious photographers.

## Description

Attached to the camera viewfinder, the Nikon DK-17M Magnifying Eyepiece boosts viewfinder magnification by roughly 1.2 times, enhancing viewing accuracy. The DK-17M supports the safety lock feature found in D3X, D3S, and D3 cameras. This magnifying eyepiece is suitable for D3, D2 & D1 Series, D700, F6, F5, F4, and F3HP Cameras.

Review: Best Accessory Ever! - For the money this is by far the greatest add-on accessory and I have these on all my camera's. This makes the already large view finder's of my Nikon D4s and D850 even larger! This is both helpful for wide-angle lenses and super-telephoto lenses, it makes the optical viewfinder experience so much better. I use these in conjunction with the Nikon DK-19 rubber eye-cup and with the included plastic ring, both stay in place really well. There is the added benefit of not getting face grease all over the back screen of the camera as this setup sticks out a ways as well. Hopefully one day Nikon will make a new version though that has the fluorine coating applied, that's the only thing that stinks about replacing the DK-17F that came with the D850. Overall though this is made really well, Nikon quality engineering and a pretty decent price to performance ratio in my opinion.
Review: Get this thing. - I've been figuring things out through trial and error. Bought a DK-21 eyepiece for a D300 I used to own and it made the puny DX viewfinder even more pigeon-holed. This DK-17M arrived for my other body at the time, the full-frame D700, and I was expecting the same. So pleasantly pleased. It was wonderful. Nothing is cropped from the viewfinder, and with the full-frame D700, it's like looking through a medium-format finder. As a career professional, few things surprise me anymore. It's a substantial improvement and something you notice every time you are shooting - particularly if you are using two bodies. I can say this now after a year using two D700 bodies - one with the DK-17M eyepiece, the other with the factory eyepiece. I modified my review after coming here to buy another DK-17M - when it occurred to me this morning that I was always using the same body - even switching lenses from the other body to favor the one with the DK-17M. As one other reviewer states, he can't understand why the FX bodies don't come with this eyepiece as factory-standard. $37 is a silly-modest investment for a very noticeable difference every time you put a camera to your eye.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi. Will it work on a F5?**
A: Hi. According to BHphoto YES. I do not possess an F5.

**Q: will this work on nikon d3100**
A: It will not work on d3100. It only works on D700,D800 or D4 which have a round view finder

**Q: Is it compatible with the D800?**
A: Yup!http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Eyepieces/4793/DK-17M-Magnifying-Eyepiece.html#tab-ProductDetail-ProductTabs-CompatibleWith

**Q: I often shoot with manual lenses, has anyone found that this helps with focusing manually? I often disregard the focusing dot with manual lenses.**
A: Provided your diopter is set correctly, it helps. You can still see the entire focus screen, I’m not sure what AstroBob is talking about. However, manually focusing is still a skill in its own, and buying an accessory won’t make you a master overnight.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must-have Nikon accessory!
*by J***. on July 19, 2008*

If you use a D2 series camera, this is a must-have item. Essentially, it eliminates that "tunnel" effect created by puny crop-factor viewfinders. Crop factor viewfinders are, of necessity, 1.5x smaller than full-frame or 35mm film viewfinders, giving an annoying tunnel vision effect when looking through them. This item magnifies that 1.5 crop viewfinder by 1.7, making it in effect 20% LARGER than a film or full-frame viewfinder view. You are still seeing what your lens sees, and your photos will still be the same 1.5x crop factor, but manual focus, composition, and reading the HUD readouts inside the viewfinder are all vastly improved. It does not stick out too far at all, in fact, if anything, it makes your nose not have to press so hard into the back of the camera. Very great item, especially if you shoot all day, as I do, in low light (weddings, events, etc.). Eyestrain is reduced because you don't have to squint so hard to see what you're focusing on. I'd recommend using this with a Katz Eye split-image focusing screen for even more brightness, clarity, and focusing ease. Conclusion: a great (and small) investment that goes a long way, especially if you're stuck without the full-frame goodness of a D3 or D700. I'm sure some pessimist may find something to whine about, but overall, this item is a great help to me, and probably will be to you as well. Got a D200/300? You might try the Nikon DK-21M Magnifying Eyepiece for Nikon D200 Digital Camera .
