Attachment DR-5/DR-6

for D3, D300, D200, D80, D60, D40

Provides an upright, unreversed image for right-angle viewing. Individual eyesight adjustments are possible. The DR-5/DR-6 allows you to set the reproduction ratio to either 1:1 or 1:2.

The DR-5 is for cameras with a circular eyepiece (D3); the DR-6 is for cameras with a rectangular eyepiece (D300, D200, D80, D60, D40).

for D3, D300, D200, D80, D60, D40

The DG-2 provides 2x magnifica- tion of the central area of the finder image. Eyesight adjustment provided. Useful for critical focusing in close-up photography. Requires an eyepiece adapter.

for D300, D200,	for D3
D80, D60, D40

Enables attachment of Eyepiece Magnifier DG-2 to the camera’s eyepiece. DK-22 is for cameras with a rectangular eyepiece.

DK-18 is for cameras with a circular eyepiece.

for D3

Attached to the D3, the DK-17M magnifies the finder image approximately 1.2 times. Diopter adjustment range is widened at both the (+) and (-) sides.

Renders reproduction ratios from about 1:1 to nearly 11x life-size, depending on the lens in use and whether the lens is mounted in normal or reverse position. Focal range of compatible lenses is from 20mm to 200mm. The lens extension covers the range from 48mm to 208mm, for producing frame-filling images of even the tiniest subjects.

Attaches to the PB-6 for an astounding magnification of 23x life-size when using a 20mm wideangle lens in reverse position. With this combination, the continuously variable extension range is from 83mm to 438mm.

Enables a D2 series camera to move on the PB-6 rail without interference and allows horizon- tal/vertical changeover any- where along the rail. Two PB-6Ds are needed when using the PB-6; three are needed when using the PB-6E.

Used with the PB-6 and a Nikkor lens to make duplicate slides. Cropping of the original slide is possible.

Attaches to the end of the PB-6 to convert it into a miniature copy stand or specimen stage.
