Color Space
sRGB is recommended when taking photographs that will be printed without modifi -
cation or viewed in applications that do not support color management, or when tak-
ing photographs that will be printed with ExifPrint, the direct printing option on some
household printers, or kiosk printing or other commercial print services. Adobe RGB
photographs can also be printed using these options, but colors will not be as vivid.
JPEG photographs taken in the Adobe RGB color space are Exif 2.21 and DCF 2.0 com-
pliant; applications and printers that support Exif 2.21 and DCF 2.0 will select the cor-
rect color space automatically. If the application or device does not support Exif 2.21
and DCF 2.0, select the appropriate color space manually. An ICC color profi le is em-
bedded in TIFF photographs taken in the Adobe RGB color space, allowing applications
that support color management to automatically select the correct color space. For
more information, see the documentation provided with the application or device.
Nikon Software
Capture NX (available separately) and PictureProject automatically select the correct
color space when opening photographs created with the D2Xs.
