Filters
• Nikon filters can be divided into three types: screw-in,
slip-in, and rear-interchange. Use Nikon filters; filters
manufactured by other makers may interfere with
autofocus or electronic range finding.
• The D300 can not be used with linear polarizing filters.
Use the C-PL circular polarizing filter instead.
• Use NC and L37C filters to protect the lens.
• To prevent moiré, use of a filter is not recommended
when the subject is framed against a bright light, or when
a bright light source is in the frame.
• Center-weighted metering is recommended with filters
with exposure factors (filter factors) over 1× (Y44, Y48,
Y52, O56, R60, X0, X1, C-PL, ND2S, ND4, ND4S, ND8, ND8S,
ND400, A2, A12, B2, B8, B12).
Optional flash
units
• Nikon Speedlights SB-900, SB-800, SB-600, and SB-400
• Nikon Wireless Remote Speedlight SB-R200
• Wireless Speedlight Commander SU-800
See page 358 for more information.
Water guards
• Water Guard WG-AS2: The optional WG-AS2 is a water guard
that covers the base of SB-900 flash units mounted on the
D300, increasing the SB-900’s splash resistance by
protecting the accessory shoe contacts from rain and
spray.
PC card
adapters
• EC-AD1 PC Card Adapter: The EC-AD1 PC card adapter allows
Type I CompactFlash memory cards to be inserted in
PCMCIA card slots.
