I am new to shooting in RAW files with my digital camera. I would like to get ideas on how to color manage these files in Photoshop. I have noticed that the Nikon driver automatically tags RAW files with Nikon sRGB 4.0.0.3000. Here are some of the questions that I’m looking for answers to.
1. Do RAW files have their own color gamut that is different from the one that Nikon has assigned and if so what is it?
2. If I tell Photoshop to ignore the tagged profile what would be a good profile to assign to a RAW file that would allow me to have a wide latitude for editing my image. Please keep in mind that my output is usually ink-jet and sometimes traditional chemical processes.
