Taking Photographs-Image Adjustment Suiting Colors to a Workflow: Color Mode The D2H offers a choice of color modes, which determine the gamut of colors available for color reproduction. Choose a color mode according to how photographs will be processed on leaving 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 II color space. This color space is capable of expressing a wider (Adobe RGB) gamut of colors than sRGB, making it the preferred choice for im- ages that will be extensively processed or retouched. 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. Color Mode Modes I and III are recommended when taking photographs that will be printed without modification or viewed in applications that do not support color management. Modes I and III are also recommended when taking photographs that will be printed with ExifPrint, the direct printing option on some household printers, or kiosk printing or other commercial print services. Photographs taken in Mode II can also be printed using these options, but colors will not be as vivid. JPEG photographs taken in Mode II are Exif 2.21 and DCF 2.0 compliant; applications and printers that support Exif 2.21 and DCF 2.0 will select the correct color space automatically. If the application or device does not support Exif 2.21 and DCF 2.0, select the Adobe RGB color space. An ICC color profile is embedded in TIFF photographs taken in Mode II, 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 When photographs created with the D2H are opened in the software provided with the camera or in Nikon Capture 4, the appropriate color space will be selected automatically. 67

Taking Photographs—Image Adjustment
Suiting Colors to a Workflow:
Color Mode
The D2H offers a choice of color modes, which determine the gamut of col-
ors available for color reproduction.
Choose a color mode according to how
photographs will be processed on leaving the camera.
Choose for portrait shots that will be printed or used “as is,” with
no further modification.
Photographs are adapted to the sRGB
color space.
I
(sRGB)
(default)
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 im-
ages that will be extensively processed or retouched.
II
(Adobe RGB)
Description
Option
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.
III

Color Mode
Modes
I
and
III
are recommended when taking photographs that will be printed with-
out modification or viewed in applications that do not support color management.
Modes
I
and
III
are also recommended when taking photographs that will be printed
with ExifPrint, the direct printing option on some household printers, or kiosk printing
or other commercial print services.
Photographs taken in Mode
II
can also be printed
using these options, but colors will not be as vivid.
JPEG photographs taken in Mode
II
are Exif 2.21 and DCF 2.0 compliant; applications
and printers that support Exif 2.21 and DCF 2.0 will select the correct color space au-
tomatically.
If the application or device does not support Exif 2.21 and DCF 2.0, select
the Adobe RGB color space.
An ICC color profile is embedded in TIFF photographs
taken in Mode
II
, allowing applications that support color management to automati-
cally select the correct color space.
For more information, see the documentation pro-
vided with the application or device.

When photographs created with the D2H are opened in the software provided with
the camera or in Nikon Capture 4, the appropriate color space will be selected auto-
matically.
