Filters

• Filters intended for special-effects photography may

interfere with autofocus or the electronic rangefinder.

• The D5 can not be used with linear polarizing filters. Use

the C-PL or C-PLII circular polarizing filter instead.

• Use Neutral Color (NC) filters to protect the lens.
• To prevent ghosting, 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). See the filter manual for
details.
