This is a strange effect I have found when exposing into sun through the
edge of leaf (1/1500 s, F 4.80, focal length: 52.00 mm). I have no idea
what that light green blue net of pixels is. hwy it is there and what fault
it is. It is because CCD? If you have clue, please
please
let me know, I am really curious. I am quite often taking shots into
difficult light. I would hate to see this every time.
Update: This is what seems to me as reasonable and possibly correct
answer:
"Think of the CCD elements as small buckets that fill with electrons
during exposure. When the buckets are full, they spill over and the
electrons run into adjacent buckets.
Another thing that happens is that, when one channel (RGB) blows out
(buckets fill), before the other channels, software interpolates what the
color at that location should have been. But that is based on a guestimate
at best. I think this is what caused the cross hatched effect in the border
of the blow out region"
But there is still interesting that just next pixels are almost dark. It
is kind of net. That what you see on enlarged version is 1:1 pixel
magnification from raw file. Effect appears only on top and bottom of
highlighted area from Sun, not on side.
There is also some possibility that it is cost by electronic shutter of
D70 (I have no idea how that kind of shutter works).
