My camera has the choice of sRGB or Adobe RGB in the settings.

If I work with Adobe RGB (1998) in photoshop, which camera setting is best? Or does it not make any difference?

According to Nikon:

SRGB I is supposed to be good for well balanced portraits, Adobe RGB is supposed to be good for manipulation, SRGB II is supposed to be good for landscapes.

EDIT - So, I agree with Keith.

You can always convert from RGB to sRGB, but converting the other way gains you nothing in terms of range and colour depth.

Yes he does mean the Adobe RGB setting. Like he says, converting from sRGB to Adobe RGB doesn't gain you anything.

Well you learn something new every day. Been shooting on the default setting of sRGB since I had my 20D.

Time to change the menu settings

Thanks all
