More near ICC profiles

  • The almost widely used color space for digital image data is the sRGB color space. Sure cameras, such as many in the the EOS line, are capable of recording image data in Adobe RGB colour space which provides a better match of the color reproduction ranges.

  • Adobe RGB colour space provides a broader colour gamut than sRGB, particularly for colors in the cyan to green region. Dedicated ICC profiles permit images recorded with extended color gamut in the Adobe RGB color space to be printed using the total colour reproduction range of inkjet printers and avert the substitution of color information.
