What is color space?
The image In/Output devices such as digital
camera, monitor and printer hold different ranges of reproducing each color.
The possible range of color reproduction is referred to as color space. Several standards of color space are fixed for each device. This camera support SRGB and Adobe RGB. sRGB is diversely used in the devices like computer. I is recommended to use SRGB for regular images. SRGB standards for International standard of color space established by the IEC {international Electrotechnical Commission
This is defined from color space for PC monitors and is also used as the standard color space for Exif. Adobe RGB is the color space recommended by Adobe Systems, Inc. for commercial printing and
has wider range of color reproduction than SRGB. Adobe RGB covers most of the color range so colors only available when printed are not lost when editing images from a computer. When image is opened by non-compatible software, the colors look lighter.
