Color Spaces – sRGB vs Adobe RGB vs ProPhoto RGB By workflow, I mean the color space to use at the capture, working, and output phases.
He does an incredible job of explaining all of the Photoshop configuration options related to color space, but I wanted to take it a little further and address color space throughout a photography workflow. I was inspired to do this episode by a recent blog post and video from my good friend, Greg Benz. Here it is in simple terms.Ĭolor space doesn’t matter in the capture phase, should be Adobe RGB in the working phase, and sRGB in the output phase of most photography workflows. So much photo editing software offers color space configuration with zero explanation of what it means. I think the photography community makes this harder than it needs to be. Color space is something many photographers struggle with.
