COLOR MODE
The color mode controls what the image looks like as well as the
color space. The color mode is set in section 1 of the recording
menu (p. 64).
Natural Color - reproduces the colors in the scene faithfully. Employs the sRGB color
space.
Natural Plus - increases contrast and acutance. Employs the sRGB color space.
Embed Adobe RGB - like Natural Color, this color mode reproduces the colors in the
scene faithfully, but uses the extended gamut of the Adobe RGB color space. The color
space is embedded in the image data.
Adobe RGB has a larger color gamut than the more common sRGB. The size of the gamut limits the
colors that can be reproduced; the larger the gamut, the more colors. If the image will be printed
out with a high-quality printer, the use of the Adobe RGB color mode is recommended over the
sRGB color modes of Natural and Natural Plus.
Color matching must be used when opening Adobe-RGB image files. When using the DiMAGE
Viewer, the color matching function must be active and the color space set to Original Color Space
(Adobe RGB) or Adobe RGB in the color preferences window, see the software manual. The
DiMAGE Viewer included with the product or later versions is required to open RAW Adobe RGB
images taken with this camera.
