Nikon D100 Manual page 193

• Nikon filters can be divided into three types: screw-in, drop-in,
and rear-interchange. With the exception of the R60, exposure
compensation need not be adjusted when a Nikon filter is at-
tached (in the case of the R60, set exposure compensation to +1).
Filters manufactured by other makers may interfere with autofo-
cus or electronic range finding.
Filters
• The D100 can not be used with linear polarizing filters. Use the
C-PL circular polarizing filter instead.
• The NC and L37C filters are recommended for protecting the lens.
• To prevent moiré, 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.
