I shoot with a Canon 10D and up until this past weekend I've always kept its color space on sRGB and gotten lovely prints with no manipulation in Photoshop. After doing some reading I switched it to RGB (Adobe 1998) believing this to be a better color space for prints. I did a shoot this weekend in RGB (Adobe 1998) and am disappointed with the results...they are rather flat looking images with a noticable blue cast. Again, these were printed with no manipulation in Photoshop. The prints were done at a lab...not on my inkjet. Any help, ideas or suggestions as to why this RGB color space is so much worse than the sRGB? Everything in the camera was left alone...no adjustment to white balance, etc. To keep on topic, I developed 2 rolls of Leica bw film yesterday and hope to print them up this weekend. I LOVE having the speed of digital to play against the traditional slowness of processing 'real' film. Life gives so much wonderful variety it's a wonder we can contain ourselves. Thanks much.
