The term "color model" should be used here instead of "color space". "Color space" implies a device-independent system like the Munsell system that produces identical results regardless of device or output. "Color model" is more limited in that it means a different numerical/mathematical representation of a color space. I.e HSL and HSV are alternate representations of RGB, whether it's sRGB or Adobe RGB or whatever. SharkD 20:08, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

  • Hmmm ... I'm comfortable with whats there. Just for the heck of it I did a quick search of the two terms in an identical question model returned 72,400 hits, while space returned 169,00 hits ... not exactly scientific. A quick look at the lead articles from both searches showed that they discuss virtually the same topics. Could this be a case of semantics? --jholsenback 23:40, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
