• Nikon fi lters can be divided into three types: screw-in, drop-in, and rear-
interchange. Use Nikon fi lters; fi lters man u fac tured by other makers
may interfere with au to fo cus or elec tron ic range fi nd ing.
• The D70 can not be used with linear polarizing fi lters. Use the C-PL
circular polarizing fi lter instead.
• The NC and L37C fi lters are recommended for pro tect ing the lens.
• When using an R60 fi lter, set exposure compensation to +1.
• To prevent moiré, use of a fi lter is not recommended when the sub-
ject is framed against a bright light, or when a bright light source is
in the frame.
• Color matrix and 3D color matrix metering may not produce the de-
sired results when used with fi lters with an exposure factor (fi lter fac-
tor) over 1 × (Y44, Y48, Y52, O56, R60, X0, X1, C-PL, ND2S, ND4S,
ND4, ND8S, ND8, ND400, A2, A12, B2, B8, B12). We recommend
center-weighted metering. For details, see the manual provided with
the fi lter.
