Halation produces unnatural colors in the picture.
This may be caused by
excessively bright
ultraviolet light on the
subject, such as sunlight
shining through the leaves
of trees, brightly lit
windows at night,
reflections off metal in
direct sunlight, etc.
• Use a commercially available UV filter. As this
may upset the overall color balance, it should
only be used under the conditions described on
the left.
• Process the picture using a graphics application
that supports JPEG (Paint Shop Pro,
Photoshop, etc.). For example, after picking up
unnatural colors with an eyedropper tool, etc.,
you can select color areas, and try color
conversion or saturation adjustment. For
details, refer to the manual for the graphics
application you are using.
