How can I prevent haloes in the original picture?

Hi,
Please check the post below. I added a link to a youtube video and Brian Tutorial on how to get rid of them.

Some more info:
-I have a D7200 too, and works great!!! I shoot in RAW only. What you describe as using f9 will help you to avoid vignetting, but not halos.
-Halos appear as a result of modifying brightness, contrast, shadows, etc. in your post software, especially when abusing them. So you have 2 options:

1. Work separate layers in Photoshop. One for the AC and another for the background (sky). This is if absolutely you need to use brightness/contrast/etc to adjust your picture. Brian's tutorial is all about this.

2. Use this method:
1.Exposing correctly the picture (we knew that )
2.Cropping and correcting white balance in Lightroom (or PS sure) and then modifying contrast and light in Photoshop BY USING THE CURVES tool. No halos!!! just a bunch of dust spots that need clean up anyway. The curves tool is the cleanest way unless of course yo go too far.

I hope this helps.

If you already turn off the D-Lightning it may be something in your post processing workflow. Did you change the shadows and highlights? Also...you can read Brian`s topic about Halos: https://forums.jetphotos.com/showthr...ips-and-tricks

Hello Vinicius!

I took this picture in the equalized mode before postprocessing. I always use the JPEG files in FINE-quality of my Nikon. Could it be the Picture-Control-Settings in my camera which caused this effect?

Hello,

I am using the Nikon D7200. I usually use the Mode "A" (for Canon user it is "Tv") with f/9 and sometimes a correction of the exposure by -0.3 up to -1.0.
However I often get some black haloes around the aircraft which are visible in the equalized version of the picture. I already switched of the "D-lightning"-feature
of my camera which normally results in haloes.

Here is one example - please disregard the dust spots - I only changed the framing during postprocessing. That is why the picture can be seen as original from the camera.

Thanks for your help!
