Filters
Nikon fi lters can be divided into three types: screw-in, slip-in, and rear-interchange. Use
Nikon fi lters; other fi lters may interfere with autofocus or electronic range fi nding.
The D80 can not be used with linear polarizing fi lters. Use the C-PL circular polarizing
lter instead.
The NC and L37C fi lters are recommended for protecting the lens.
Moiré may occur if a fi lter is used 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 fi lters with exposure factors (fi lter
factors) over 1 × (Y44, Y48, Y52, O56, R60, X0, X1, C-PL, ND2S, ND4, ND4S, ND8, ND8S,
ND400, A2, A12, B2, B8, B12).
