So, when Capture handles Color Mode II files through to completion

it saves them with a Nikon Adobe RGB profile embedded (which is

prompt a
profile mismatch when opening into Photoshop).
Fortunate for users, Adobe's CMM compares data in the profile that
defines the space (primaries and TRC), and we end up with a null
transform because it realizes source=destination. Otherwise this
total perversion on the part of Nikon (and EPSON who tacks their name
on various editing space profiles as well) would result in
ridiculously confusing and time wasting workflows.
When I open these files into Photoshop I can assign the *real*
Adobe RGB
profile to these photos and continue on from there, since I'd just
as soon
not share with a client a pic with an embedded Nikon Adobe RGB
profile.
I would think this would annoy Adobe at the least, if not involve
copyright. There is but one "Adobe RGB (1998)" space, and there's no
such thing as a company, or two my knowledge a collaboration between
two companies, justifying the name "Nikon Adobe" or "EPSON Adobe".
Whoever made this decision at Nikon and EPSON should be paddled. It's
just incredibly stupid to do this to all of us.!
