I would be surprised if the camera would internally convert from a 'native'
space to AdobeRGB. I don't think Nikon's engineering is that advanced.
Kodak's engineers, on the other hand, are doing just that.
I believe that the camera raw pixels are just slapped with AdobeRGB on the
way out to the storage media.
Have you tried color balancing the capture on the N8 patch of the Color
Checker? And what about the color temperature control: does that do any good
for you?
