I have a Canon 5D MK III and shoot raw.

I use DPP 4 to convert raw file to a TIFF file.

What is the color work space of the TIFF file.

Thanks Connie

Most DSLRs can be set to sRGB or Adobe Color Space. Refer to your camera's manual to see you you can set this up in the Menu System.

Doesn't the setting you referred to just apply to the camera's LCD display?

My Nikon keeps the color space Adobe RGB when imported as a .NEF file into LR where I change it to ProPhoto RGB.

Look at page 1-9 of the manual under "Specifying Color Space." You do have the manual don't you? I surprised that they do not have ProPhotoRGB.

Hi,
I found out that I can set the work space of the TIFF file in DPP 4. I have two choices. sRGB and Wide Gamut. I wonder if Wide Gamut is the same as ProPhoto RGB.
On the camera I can set the jpeg work space to sRGB or Adobe.
Thanks for your responses.I
Happy New Year
