Magnifying Eyepiece for DSLR

Last updated January 30, 2010 - Send Feedback

For Nikon DSLR users (most models), I recommend the following (some items are for some models and not others).

Eyepiece items in general

Nikon offers a range of eyepiece and eyepiece accessories, including diopter-correction eyepieces and other. See my list of eyepiece and eyepiece accessories.

Below are a few that are particularly useful. Not shown below are various anti-fog eyepieces, very helpful under some conditions.

Nikon DK-21M (bottom)

The DK-17M eyepiece screws into D3/D3s/D3x and similar Nikon bodies, providing 1.2X magnification, which I find helpful for manual focusing.

Get the DK-21M for other Nikon models (D200, D300, D40, etc). I've found both of them a plus for my use.

Eyeglass users might not like either magnifying eyepiece because it could cut off things like focus confirmation and other data at screen bottom.
