About Adobe RGB

This color space 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). The image will look very subdued in a sRGB

personal computer environment and with printers not compatible with

Design rule for Camera File System 2.0 (Exif 2.21). Post-processing of

the image with software will therefore be required.

[] _#If the image is captured with the Color space Set to Adobe RGB, the file

name will start with "_MG±" (first character is an underscore).

## The ICC profile is not appende d. See explanations about the !co prefi!e

in the Software Instruction Manual in the CD-ROM.
