Using a Filter
The camera is compatible with commercially available 40.5mm filters, which
can be attached to the lens filter mounting thread.
Caution --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• Using a colored filter or filter with density can make it impossible to obtain
the correct exposure. Make sure to take some test shots in advance and
use exposure compensation.
• If an exposure multiplying factor, etc., is required for a colored filter used
with black and white film, compensation may not be possible in combi-
nation with the metering sensor. Make sure to take some test shots in
advance.
• Using multiple filters may cause vignetting in the metering range, making
it impossible to obtain the correct exposure. Make sure to use only one
filter with a thin edge.
