Dig in the manual and it should explain that.

Thank you for the quick answer. I had no idea about color spaces. I will check it out. There are so many menus and buttons, I might have done something.
Thank you.

A quick scan of the full user manual I see.....

In the same quick scan I only found this with reference to the file names.....

That shows the complex folder structure of the SD card and the upper right shows the "P" and "_" as sRGB and Adobe RGB respectively.

The manual is found from http://help.panasonic.ca/english/support/operatinginstructions/query.asp and search for "g7" and download the biggest file, in this case the Model Number(s): DMCG7PP sqw0392 (16.3 MB , English) will lead you to the 411 page manual for some light reading.

So, make sure that you have set to sRGB colour space to make life easier.

No Panasonic bodies here so only working from the manual.

Regards...... Guy
