I have my Canon D-10 set to Adobe RGB.
When I open the image in PS 7 (have the upgrade to CS2 on the way)
it tells me that this image doesn't have an embedded color profile.
Russ,
First, I assume you mean the Canon 10D. I've not heard of a D-10 model.
According to the Canon 10D manual (page 58): "Images captured with
[Adobe RGB] will not be appended with the ICC profile. To convert the
profile, Adobe RGB must be specified."
I am given three options
Leave as is Don't color manage
Assign working RGB (Adobe 1998)
Assign profile(there is a box with selections of profiles)
and a box where I can check to then convert document to working RGB.
I would guess that under normal conditions I would assign working RGB
unless I was printing with a paper that I had down loaded the profile
for.
It all depends on the final destination for the work and how you're
viewing the pictures on your monitor. What does the printer need--sRGB
or Adobe RGB?
The next bullet in the manual says, "When images captured with Adobe
RGB are displayed on an sRGB-based LCD monitor, video monitor, or
printed with an sRGB printer, the resulting image will look to have low
chroma. The chroma must therefore be adjusted beforehand."
