Questions and postings pertaining to the usage of ImageMagick regardless of the interface. This includes the command-line utilities, as well as the C and C++ APIs. Usage questions are like "How do I use ImageMagick to create drop shadows?".
In IrfanView JPEG saving options dialogue, there is checkbox "disable color subsampling", and in Corel PhotoPaint, there is "jpeg sub-format" selector with "4:2:2" and "4:4:4" options.
If "disable subsampling" checked, or "4:4:4" selected, JPEGs with the same quality became little bigger, but some colors (especially reds) looks closer to original.
How can I reproduce same result with ImageMagick?
Is it correct to use -sampling-factor 4:4:4 ?
Which is default value, 4:2:2 ?
