Suiting Colors to Your Workflow: Color Mode

Your Nikon digital camera offers a choice of color modes, which determine
the gamut of colors available for color reproduction. How you choose a color
mode depends on how the final photograph will be processed once it leaves
the camera.

Option

Description

I (sRGB)

(default)

Choose for portrait shots that will be printed or used “as is,”
with no further modification. Photographs are adapted to the
sRGB color space.

Photographs taken at this setting are adapted to the Adobe
RGB color space. This color space is capable of expressing a
wider gamut of colors than sRGB, making it the preferred choice
for studio photography or images that will be modified as part
of a commercial production work flow.

II (Adobe RGB)

III (sRGB)

Choose for nature or landscape shots that will be printed or
used “as is,” with no further modification. Photographs are
adapted to the sRGB color space.
