Filters
• Nikon fi lters can be divided into three types: screw-in, drop-in, and rear-
interchange. Use Nikon fi lters; other fi lters may interfere with au to fo cus
or elec tron ic range fi nd ing.
• The D70S 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 desired
results when used with fi lters with an exposure factor (fi lter factor) 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.
Body caps
♦BF-1A Body Cap: The BF-1A keeps the mirror, viewfi nder screen, and
low-pass fi lter free of dust when no lens is mounted on the camera.

caused by camera shake; features a

♦ML-L3 Wireless Remote Control: The ML-L3 can be used to release the
shutter remotely, without touching the camera or attaching a cable.
Use for self-portraits.

CompactFlash mem o ry cards to be inserted in PCMCIA card slots.
