I don't know why but my camera seems to create halo when shooting high contrasted scenes. I have a photo that I can't post for now being in a challenge that has been rejected at DPCPrints because of these halo ("You have fluorescent borders from over-sharpening"). The problems is that these borders where not from oversharpenning but where in the original shot and I would like to get rid of them but I don't know how. Here is an example of my problem.
Around the statue
Thanks!

I don't know anything about that camera, but if you can, you need a faster shutter speed, or a smaller aperature (or both). You're letting in far too much light from the sun, which is causing the haloing.. I believe.

Quick questions: Did you use a filter and what were the settings? Any EV changes, +, -, or 0?

| The line around the edges are caused by sharpening, usually when you see them then you have oversharpened. To reduce/remove them try a different sharpening technique or dont sharpen as much. |

| That's the problem you encounter with point and shoot digital. I have a Canon G2 and I have the halo problem when I shoot something that's backlit. I don;t know whether you can do anything about it except try to remove them in photoshop. |

| Another thing you can try is to reduce the in-camera sharpening, which can be pretty agressive by default. Try setting it to the lowest value you can, if it is selectable. then sharpen in post-processing where you have control of the process. |

The problem is that I get these halo before sharpenning.

Does your camera sharpen in-camera? If you sharpen it yourself or on any other image with a dark edge you'll see the same thing. I'm sure there is some technical junk that explains it but that's the usual symptons for that type of problem. |

I would turn all the in-camera adjustments off (if you can) and do them all in PS. That way you know what has been done to the photo.
