Several standard color gamuts are available and can be selected from the
Preset Color Gamuts
list.
The choice of color gamut will depend on the application.
To get the widest possible range of displayable colors, select the
Native Gamut
.
This is the most suitable when using color-managed applications and working with
images or output devices that have a wide color gamut. For example, if you are using
RAW files with a digital camera, and printing to an inkjet printer, then
Native Gamut
is a good choice since it will allow the maximum range of colors to be displayed.
For video applications, presets such as
SMPTE-C
,
sRGB
and
EBU/ITU (PAL/
SECAM)
are suitable.
Note: Although a preset for
NTSC (1953)
is available, do not use it for video
applications because this color gamut, although defined as part of the original NTSC
1953 specification, was never actually implemented in practice.
SMPTE-C
or
sRGB
should be used instead.
The sRGB and CRT Display presets are suitable for emulating the color gamut of a
traditional standard gamut LCD or CRT monitor. These can be useful, for example,
when it is necessary to visualize how images will be viewed by others using such
types of monitors.
Note: The presets listed on the Color Gamut page only set the color gamut of the monitor. So, for example, selecting
sRGB will only set the color gamut to that of the sRGB specification, and will not set the other specification parameters
such as white point, brightness etc.
