space, especially in consumer grade digital cameras. sRGB is
acceptable for most consumer applications. The sRGB design
allows easy previewing on a standard computer display.
This setting indicates an RGB color space developed by Adobe

professional graphic artists prefer Adobe RGB for its larger
gamut.
