[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 7571, member: 1061"] RAW and sRGB. I'm sure some of you are surprised to read that, considering I'm a 20+ year Photoshop veteran. Here's why: Yes, there is a slightly wider range of color, but that comes at the price of less vibrancy because you're squeezing more colors into the same amount of space. Adobe RGB is also worthless for internet viewing, because browsers can't render it. When it comes to prints, unless the photo print lab also uses Adobe RGB, your photo colors will come out even more dull. The one single advantage of using Adobe RGB is if you make your own prints and have the software and techniques necessary to make it work. Even then you are limited by the actual printer, because most printers aren't capable of fully rendering Adobe RGB either. Trust me on this one, kids. Stick with the world standard, sRGB. You'll get more vibrant colors and more consistent results. Don't take my word for it. Do a Google search for Adobe RGB vs sRGB. The results are almost unanimous. [/QUOTE]
