Konica Minolta DiMAGE_A2 Manuel D’Utilisation

Adobe RGB has a larger color gamut than the more common sRGB. The size of the gamut limits the
colors that can be reproduced; the larger the gamut, the more colors. If the image will be printed
out with a high-quality printer, the use of the Adobe RGB color mode is recommended over the
sRGB color modes of Natural and Vivid Color. 

Color matching must be used when opening Adobe-RGB image files. The use of embedded Adobe
RGB is recommended. When using the DiMAGE Viewer, the color matching function must be active
and the color space set to Original Color Space (Adobe RGB) in the color preferences window. See
color matching in the advanced setup section in the DiMAGE Viewer manual. DiMAGE Viewer ver-
sion 2.2 or later is required to open Adobe RGB images taken with this camera.

About Adobe RGB

This function reduces the affect of dark noise caused by long
exposures. Noise reduction is only applied to exposures of one
second or longer. Processing is applied to each image after it is
captured. The monitor remains blank during processing for a maxi-
mum of 30 seconds. Noise reduction uses dark-frame subtraction.

Noise Reduction

Black & White - produces monochrome
images. 

Natural Color and Adobe RGB - repro-
duces the colors in the scene faithfully. 

Vivid Color - increases the saturation
of the colors in the scene.

Solarization - produces a partial
reversal of tones and colors in the
image.
