Color Space

(User's Manual: D300S page 166; D300 page 169)
Color spaces are an interesting and important part of digital
photography. They help your images fit into a much broader
range of imaging devices. Software, printers, monitors, and
other devices recognize which
image and use it, along with other color profiles, to help
balance the image to the correct output colors for the device
in use. The two color spaces available on the Nikon D300(S)
have different gamuts, or ranges of color.
