available from local retailers and Nikon-authorized service representatives.

 

 

 

• Battery Charger MH-25a/MH-25 (0 22): Recharge EN-EL15 batteries.

 

 

 

• Multi-Power Battery Pack MB-D15: The MB-D15 is equipped with a shutter-release

sources

cover.

 

 

 

• Power Connector EP-5B, AC Adapter EH-5b: These accessories can be used to power

 

 

 

the camera for extended periods (EH-5a and EH-5 AC adapters can also be

 

 

 

used). The EP-5B is required to connect the camera to the EH-5b; see page 311

 

 

 

for details. Note that when the camera is used with an MB-D15, the EP-5B must

 

 

 

be inserted into the MB-D15, not the camera. Do not attempt to use the

 

 

 

camera with power connectors inserted into both the camera and MB-D15.

 

 

 

• Filters intended for special-effects photography may interfere with autofocus

 

 

 

or the electronic rangefinder.

 

 

 

• Use C-PL or C-PL II circular polarizing filters. Polar-brand linear polarizing filters

 

 

 

can not be used.

 

 

 

• Use NC filters to protect the lens.

 

 

Filters

• 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/C-PL II, ND2S, ND4,

 

 

 

ND4S, ND8, ND8S, ND400, A2, A12, B2, B8, B12). See the filter manual for

 

 

 

details.

 

 

 

• DK-20C Eyepiece Correction Lenses: Lenses are available with diopters of –5, –4, –3,

 

 

 

–2, 0, +0.5, +1, +2, and +3 m–1when the camera diopter adjustment control is

 

 

 

in the neutral position (–1 m–1). Use eyepiece correction lenses only if the

 

 

 

desired focus can not be achieved with the built in diopter adjustment control

 

 

 

(–2 to +1 m–1). Test eyepiece correction lenses before purchase to ensure that

 

 

 

the desired focus can be achieved. The rubber eyecup can not be used with

 

 

 

eyepiece correction lenses.

 

 

Viewfinder

• Magnifying Eyepiece DK-21M: The DK-21M magnifies the view through the

 

 

viewfinder by approximately 1.17× (50 mm f/1.4 lens at infinity; –1.0 m–1) for

 

 

eyepiece

 

 

greater precision when framing.

 

 

accessories

 

 

• Magnifier DG-2: The DG-2 magnifies the scene displayed in the center of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

viewfinder for greater precision during focusing. Eyepiece adapter required

 

 

 

(available separately).

 

 

 

• Eyepiece Adapter DK-22: The DK-22 is used when attaching the DG-2 magnifier.

 

 

 

• Right-Angle Viewing Attachment DR-6: The DR-6 attaches at a right angle to the

 

 

 

viewfinder eyepiece, allowing the image in the viewfinder to be viewed at

 

 

 

right angles to the lens (for example, from directly above when the camera is

 

 

 

horizontal).
