Filters
Use Nikon filters; filters manufactured by other makers may interfere with
autofocus or the electronic rangefinder.
The D3100 can not be used with linear polarizing filters.
Use the C-PL circular
polarizing filter instead.
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.

angles to the lens (for example, from directly above when the camera is
horizontal).
