I shot RAW and used ACR to convert to 16 bit and ProPhoto RGB on my D200 images.

Adobe RGB has a larger color gamut than sRGB. It really depends on what your final display medium will be. If you are only destined for the web, then sRGB is fine. If you are printing, then possibly Adobe RGB is better (depending on the printer, ink & paper). If you are doing heavy post processing, then the bigger the gamut, the better (why I use ProPhoto RGB).

Thnaks for the response. 99% of my shots are for web and/or screen viewing. I also shoot 99.9% JPEG.
