The color space refers to the range of reproducible colors. With this
camera, you can set the color space for captured images to sRGB or
Adobe RGB. For normal images, sRGB is recommended. In the Basic
Zone modes, sRGB will be set automatically.

This is mainly used for commercial printing and other industrial uses.
This setting is not recommended if you do not know about image
processing, Adobe RGB, and Design rule for Camera File System 2.0
(Exif 2.21).
Since the image will look very subdued with sRGB personal computers
and printers not compatible with Design rule for Camera File System
2.0 (Exif 2.21), post-processing of the image with software will be
required.
