COLOR MODE
The color mode controls what the image looks like
as well as the color space. The color mode is set
with the function button (p. 56). The color mode can
only be selected in P, A, S, and M exposure modes.
Except for the Abobe RGB and embed Adobe RGB,
all color modes use sRGB color space. Some color
modes use preset Digital Effects Control values (p.
63); the default positions are indicated by a thick
index mark on the scale of the setting screen.
