This page provides information about the Color Management rollout of the V-Ray tab.
Overview
The Color Management rollout allows you to switch between sRGB and ACEScg workflow. The ACEScg is a linear color working space that specifies a wider gamut of colors than the sRGB linear gamut. It allows for a greater range of colors transformations in post as its gamut envelopes not only sRGB, but also P3, Rec709, and Rec2020. Archived assets in ACEScg do not need to be remastered in case the display standards are improved in the future.

Options
Rendering RGB Primaries – Selects a display color space for the rendered image. The selected mode is saved as metadata to .vrimg. The selected mode is, by default, automatically applied to any VRayBitmap or Bitmap Node imported into the scene. To disable the automatic application of the Rendering RGB Primaries, see the Preferences V-Ray Menu options.
sRGB – Image is rendered in sRGB color space. This is the color space for most monitors and computer displays.
ACEScg – Image is rendered in ACEScg color space. This color space allows for a greater range of color transformations in post. It has a wider gamut of colors than the sRGB linear gamut and should be encoded into a 16-bit floating .exr.
Copy Color Management to V-Ray VFB – Executing this command creates an instance of the VFB with a copy of the document color management settings. This prevents implicit overwrites over user modifications of the VFB display color corrections.
