I'm wondering whether to set my camera for Adobe RGB or sRGB. I tried to work this one out for myself but couldn't.
I shoot in RAW with a Canon. The conversion software by default uses Adobe RGB, and I never changed that. My Corel photo software, however, uses sRGB and does not appear to allow any other options. I just realized my camera can be set to Adobe RGB (it has been set on sRGB).
My sense is that I get better colors with Adobe RGB, particularly when I print directly from the RAW image. But I almost always finish it off in Corel because I get better sharpening there. Corel always makes me convert the color space before I can proceed. Given this mishmash, should I set the camera to Adobe or sRGB? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
