Does it matter? Colour spaces and editing/printing your photos - what to use and what to ignore

Keith looks at what colour spaces he uses for editing images and how it relates to monitor choices and printing. Do you need a large gamut monitor and how big a colour working space is needed.

How much difference does this really make when printing or putting images onto the web.

There is an extended article covering the content of this video, which also cover things like rendering intents and image adjustments for printing:
