ACCESSORIES —continued—

Filters

Constructed of Nikon's own optical glass, Nikon filters not only

protect the front of the lens, but provide color correction or

allow you to create special effects. As shown in the table, Nikon
filters are broadly divided into the screw-in type and the drop-

in type.

Notes:

1) For lens protection, the L39 and L37C are recommended.

2) When shooting a backlit subject or if there’s a bright source in the

frame, a ghost image is likely to result when using a filter. In this case,
you should take the picture without a filter.

3) The F3AF's autofocus/focus-aid function cannot be used with the R60.

4) In low-light situations, the use of an ND fitter may cause the focus-

impossible warning to blink.

Lens Hoods

Recommended to prevent extraneous light from striking the
lens, Nikon's lens hoods come in four styles: screw-in, slip-on,

snap-on, and collapsible rubber. Every lens should be fitted with
the lens hood specially designed for it. Note, however, that some

lens hoods can be used in common by several lenses.
