With adobe, you need to use a color managed program to view the files
like photoshop and you need to convert to sRGB for posting to the web so
it can be kind of a hassle but yes adobe has a larger gamut so that very
intense saturated colors are less prone to posterization especially when
manipulating further. Some people argue that sRGB 'looks' more saturated
and vibrant, I'm not sure about that, perhaps adobe is more subtle but
the point is you can crank up the saturation without harm.- Hide quoted text -

Now I think I'm more confused. I shot a concert this weekend, with
the D80, in adobe RGB, and I just opened the files with the windows
viewer and looked at them with that. Then I picked a few and posted
them to a binaries newsgroup that I subscribe to. Everything seemed
to work fine, and other people saw the pictures.

I don't have a copy of Photoshop (unfortunately) and am not really
able to get one due to the prohibitive cost involved. Which is also
the reason that I don't shoot in RAW, even though I would prefer to do
that.
