Setting The Color Space - Canon EOS 7D Instruction Manual

Setting the Color SpaceN
3
The color space refers to the range of reproducible colors. With this
camera, you can set the color space for captured images to sRGB or
Adobe RGB. For normal shooting, sRGB is recommended.
In the fully-automatic modes (1/C), sRGB is set automatically.
About Adobe RGB
This color space is mainly used for commercial printing and other
industrial uses. This setting is not recommended if you do not know
about image processing, Adobe RGB, and Design rule for Camera File
System 2.0 (Exif 2.21). The image will look very subdued in the sRGB
personal computer environment and with printers not compatible with
Design rule for Camera File System 2.0 (Exif 2.21). Post-processing of
the image with software will therefore be required.
If the captured still photo was shot in the Adobe RGB color space, the

first character in the file name will be an underscore "_".
The ICC profile is not appended. The ICC profile is explained in the PDF

Software Instruction Manual on the CD-ROM.
