COLOR MATCHING - COLOR PREFERENCES
Each output device (monitor or printer) defines color
and contrast differently.To ensure accurate repro-
duction, the output color space must be defined.
Color matching is used for professional color man-
agement. It is not needed for normal personal use.
Select the color-preferences option from the file
menu to open the dialog box.
In the dialog box, click the color-matching-on check
box.
Select a color space from the drop-down list.The fol-
lowing color spaces are available:
Original Color Space (sRGB) - the color space of the camera image is not converted to a standard
color space.This color space is recommended for images captured with a Konica Minolta DiMAGE
digital camera.The DiMAGE Viewer, monitor, and printer interprets the color as sRGB for reproduc-
tion purposes, but does not convert the original camera color space.
Original Color Space (Adobe RGB) - Adobe-RGB color-mode images captured with a Konica
Minolta digital camera, such as the DiMAGE 7Hi, A1, or A2, must be opened with this color space
unless the color profile has been embedded; see the embedded camera profiles section on page 90.
As with Original Color Space (sRGB), the color space of the camera image is not converted to a
standard color space.The DiMAGE Viewer, monitor, and printer interprets the color as Adobe RGB
for reproduction purposes, but does not convert the original camera color space.
sRGB - the color space promoted by Hewlett Packard and Microsoft. Since it reflects the average PC
monitor characteristics, it is widely used around the world, and is considered to be the standard for
multi-media and Internet usage. sRGB is not suitable for professional prepress applications because
of its narrow reproduction range.
