C1 and Adobe RGB

[tonygamble]

I have been using BreezeBrowser for converting and opted for Adobe RGB instead of sRGB.

When I read the files in Qimage I can see the Adobe RGB profile registering.

How do I get C1 to create its JPG with Abode RGB and not sRGB?

I have tried. It may be there, but Qimage is not seeing it.
Why Adobe and not 's' ? My understanding is that the colour gamut is better.

Any ideas folks?

Tony,

I'm still learning Capture One, so... no guarantees, but Workflow>Color management Settings allow you to specify colour spaces and on the Develop tab, you should have "convert to destination" in the Colour Management Workflow section.

This certainly gives me the embedded profile for 16-bit TIFFs.

Yes, you're about about wider colour gamut with Adobe RGB vs sRGB.

Roger,

Thanks for that. It works and I can see the Adobe RGB in the Qimage info.

You go for 16 bit TIF I see. I'll try that instead of 8.

If you go directly from C1 to Qimage, you should convert to 8-bit, since QImage does not deal with 16-bit images. It reads them but immediately makes (I guess) a 16-bit to 8-bit conversion. I rather supply QImage 8-bit data as I see it.

That' s a good tip about 8 and 16.

Thanks.
