1. A method of sorting electronic color images of objects, the method comprising: receiving an input representation of a desired object, the input representation including first data representing at least one color of the desired object, the first data being in a first color space; converting the first data in the first color space into second data in a second color space different than the first color space; determining an indication of desired saturation of the at least one color; comparing the desired saturation indication to a plurality of candidate saturation indications associated with a plurality of stored candidate images; if the candidate saturation indication associated with a presently compared one of the stored candidate images is not in a prescribed range of saturation indications, the prescribed range of saturation indications including the desired saturation indication, discarding the presently compared candidate image as a possible match to the desired object; and determining at least one of the non-discarded candidate images to be a possible match to the desired object based on at least one of the first data or the second data.
