[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 683349, member: 13090"] You are correct. [LIST] [*]sRGB files use: _DSC1234 [*]aRGB files use: DSC_1234 [/LIST] If you shoot raw, the color-profile you work in will be determined by your raw converter; in your case that's Lightroom, so your raw files will open using the ProPhoto color-profile (by default). When you're done processing the Export dialog in Lightroom will default to using the sRGB color-profile, but there's a drop down menu with a few other options: [COLOR=#FFFFFF]..... [/COLOR] [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]299045._xfImport[/ATTACH] Now, once you've converted a raw file to .jpg, that particular color-profile (or "color-space", if you prefer) is "baked in". I know you don't shoot .jpg BUT... If one day you were to shoot in, say, raw + .jpg for some reason the camera body will embed a color-profile (either sRGB or aRGB) into your .jpg's automatically because image files, like .jpg, require a color-profile. I know Photoshop will allow me to convert a .jpg from one color-profile to another but... 1) I can't imagine why I'd need, or even [I]want[/I] to do that and, 2) I don't know if Lightroom allows you to do that or not, though I imagine it would.
