Notes
• Adobe RGB is for applications or printers that support color management and 
DCF2.0 option color space. Using some applications or printers that do not support 
them may result in or print images that do not faithfully reproduce the color.
• When displaying images that were recorded with Adobe RGB on the camera or non-
Adobe RGB-compliant devices, the images are displayed with low saturation.

sRGB
This is the standard color space of the digital camera. Use 
sRGB in normal shooting, such as when you intend to print 
out the images without any modification.
AdobeRGB
This has a wide range of color reproduction. When a large 
part of the subject is vivid green or red, Adobe RGB is 
effective.
• The file name of the image starts with “_DSC.”
