>>2978805This. Changing the color space in camera changes the color space of the cameras jpgs only, the raw data is not affected: The raw file remains the same except for its included preview, which is jpg and is seen in the cameras image review. On your computer, Lightroom renders a new preview based on the raw data and Lightroom's standard settings. The included preview is overwritten without being used. The result is equal, regardless of the cameras color space.
Also AdobeRGB renders a wider color range, but is bound to the same bit-rate, which defaults to 8-bit for jpgs. This results in larger color steps (more range on the same 255 steps) which give more contrast, more banding and less subtle details. In practice, except for the green channel, the difference won't be noticeable.
False statements are in the following posts:
>>2978743>The difference will be miles in the details>>2978792>Basically it's about getting more data recorded to be used in post.>>2978795>you will record more detailYour raw processing is not affected by the in-camera color space.
For jpgs the recorded data is represented in values 0-255. AdobeRGB as compared to sRGB renders a wider gamut on these values, which is an improvement only if the colors are clipped in sRGB and is a diminishment otherwise. Imagine very fine color differences mapped on the 0-255 scale resulting in 2 steps in AdobeRGB but 7 steps in sRGB.
