So does this article have any valid points?
It's true, the colour gamut of most camera sensors is far greater than sRGB or AdobeRGB and most aren't even fully contained within the ProPhoto RGB CS. The colours that the camera is capable of recording are clipped and compressed to fit into the Adobe RGB and sRGB colour spaces, the colours outside the selected colour space are lost at that point. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
