POLL - Colour Space

[Greg B]

The pesky colour space and colour mode questions are always a bit perplexing.

I would be interested to see what most people are using, so......

Let's Have A Poll!!

sRGB in-camera setting for me. Mind you, if you shoot raw and use NC you can always change between the modes as RAW contains all the data necessary for any of the modes supported.

I Shoot in RAW if the image is a keeper I process in prophoto RGB 16 bit, all others Adobe RGB 1998 and assign profile for the web of sRGB after down sizing......

I use argb on the camera and in photoshop.
I change to srgb at the save stage for anything destined for the web.

I use argb for the wider gamut.

aRGB for me.

Broken record....

Adobe RGB in-camera and PP, change to sRGB for the web.

I shoot and archive in RAW, so it doesn't matter there.

For producing output (prints, web images) I work in aRGB, since it seems to cover both output spaces, almost. It doesn't quite cover some saturated corner (yellow?) of the colour range that ink jets can produce. For that reason I might give Pro Photo RGB a try. That one dwarfs color gamuts of any device I'll ever be able to afford, but requires 16bit, or else there will be banding in gradients.

On output I convert to the target space (either sRGB for web images or printer profile).

Cheers

Adobe RGB for me.
I don't bother converting to sRGB for displaying on the web as Smugmug (supposedly) does this for you when you upload.
