Comments about Nikon DK-17 Finder Eyepiece for D3, D2 Series, D700 & F6 Cameras (Replacement):
I needed to send my camera in for repair so I needed to remove all accessories before shipping. I couldn't locate my original DK-17 so I ordered this replacement. The replacement was spot on to the original and fit like a champ. I would definitely reorder it again in the event I misplace this one!

Just what you expect, an exact replacement of your factory piece. A bit pricey IMO but so is the camera that it attaches to.

Comments about Nikon DK-17 Finder Eyepiece for D3, D2 Series, D700 & F6 Cameras (Replacement):
It's hard to go wrong here. This is a manufacturer-supplied replacement part, and it works exactly as you would expect it to. I was unfortunate enough to lose the original off a D700 while making photographs at a wedding; this is an exact replacement.

Comments about Nikon DK-17 Finder Eyepiece for D3, D2 Series, D700 & F6 Cameras (Replacement):
The product was just as described. Great to keep a few of these babies as spares. They have an uncanny knack for coming of the camera, or easily breaking.

Comments about Nikon DK-17 Finder Eyepiece for D3, D2 Series, D700 & F6 Cameras (Replacement):
The replacement worked fine I'm just trying to figure out how the old one worked itself off. I have several cameras that use this eyepiece and this is the first time I lost one. The relacement does have long threads and screws in quite far so I don't expect any further problems.

I purchased a few extra of these for my Nikon D700. Not had to replace them so far. I am out in the field many days per week and its good to have the peace of mind in case one gets shattered.
Pros

Comments about Nikon DK-17 Finder Eyepiece for D3, D2 Series, D700 & F6 Cameras (Replacement):
I had to buy one of these when I knocked my D3 over on its tripod last August (2008). Talk about a nightmare situation...
Anyway, I had to replace the eyepiece that shipped with the camera. This was perfect - the exact replacement that shipped when I bought the D3. It took all of about 3 seconds to re-attach it, and I am back up and running!
