Filters
• Filters intended for special-effects photography may
interfere with autofocus or the electronic rangefinder.
• The D3500 cannot be used with linear polarizing filters.
Use C-PL or C-PL II circular polarizing filters instead.
• Neutral Color (NC) filters are recommended for protecting
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.
