Nikon F3AF instruction manual Filters, Lens Hoods

-ACCESSORIES-continued------------

Filters

Constructed of Nikon'sown 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 autofocuslfocus-aid function cannot be used with the ROO.

4)In low-light situations, the use of an NO filter may cause the focus- impossible warning to blink.

Lens Hoods

Recommended to prevent extraneous light from striking the lens, Nikon 'slens 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.
