Owner's Manual

• 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 2.21 and
OCF 2.0 compliant; applications and printers that support Exif 2.21 and
OCF 2.0 will select the correct color space automatically. If the application
or device does
not support Exif 2.21 and OCF 2.0, select the appropriate
color space manually. An
ICC color profile is embedded in TIFF
photographs taken in the Adobe RGB color space, allowing applications
that support color management to automatically select the correct color
space.
For more information, see the documentation provided with the
application or device.
IB!I • Nikon Software
ViewNX (supplied) and Capture NX 2 (available separately) automatically
select
the correct color space when opening photographs created with
the 0700.
