A variety of accessories are available for your Nikon camera.
Other Accessories
Power sources • EN-EL25a/EN-EL25 Rechargeable Li-ion Battery: Additional
EN-EL25a/EN-EL25 batteries are available from local
retailers and Nikon service representatives. The number
of shots that can be taken (battery life) differs (0 465)
because the battery capacity differs when using the
EN-EL25a and the EN-EL25.
• MH-32 Battery Charger: The MH-32 can be used to recharge
EN-EL25a/EN-EL25 batteries.
• EH-73P Charging AC Adapter: The EH-73P can be used to
charge EN-EL25a/EN-EL25 batteries inserted in the
camera (the battery only charges when the camera is
off).
Filters • Neutral Color (NC) filters can be used to protect the lens.
• To prevent ghosting, avoid using filters when the
subject is framed against a bright light, or when a bright
light source is in the frame.
• Center-weighted metering is recommended if matrix
metering fails to produce the desired results for 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.
• Filters intended for special-effects photography may
interfere with autofocus or the in-focus indicator (I).
