A Color Space
Color spaces define the correspondence between colors and the numeric values that
represent them in a digital image file.
The sRGB color space is widely used, while the Adobe
RGB color space is typically used in publishing and commercial printing.
sRGB is
recommended when taking photographs that will be printed without modification or
viewed in applications that do not support color management, or when taking photographs
that will be printed with ExifPrint, the direct printing option on some household printers, or
kiosk printing or other commercial print services.
Adobe RGB photographs can also be
printed using these options, but colors will not be as vivid.
JPEG photographs taken in the Adobe RGB color space are Exif 2.3 and DCF 2.0 compliant;
applications and printers that support Exif 2.3 and DCF 2.0 will select the correct color space
automatically.
If the application or device does not support Exif 2.3 and DCF 2.0, select the
appropriate color space manually.
For more information, see the documentation provided
with the application or device.
A Nikon Software
ViewNX 2 (supplied) and Capture NX 2 (available separately) automatically select the correct
color space when opening photographs created with the camera.
