Hello, I want to convert a RGB image to L*a*b*, I did some research and I found two different codes, and the results are also differents.
1st code :
src = 'Img1.jpg';
rgbI = imread(src);
labI=rgb2lab(rgbI);
imshow(labI(:,:,1),[0 100])
2nd code :
src = 'shad.jpg';
rgbI = imread(src);
labTransform = makecform('srgb2lab');
labI = applycform(rgbI, labTransform);
imshow(labI)
Could you please tell me which one is the correct conversion.

The makecform default illuminant is ICC, but sRGB uses D65. So you need to specify the correct whitepoint for that conversion
makecform('srgb2lab', 'AdaptedWhitePoint', whitepoint('D65'))
