PP asked me this question the other day. Which color space should he use to process his photographs? Lets start by understanding what color space is. Color Space is the way Photoshop defines Red, Green and Blue. It’s the RGB model that defines what the values of a specific color are represented. For example, at white, R is 255, G is 255 and B is 255.
Usually people who are new to color management would use sRGB. Adobe RGB contains much more control when you’re using advanced color management techniques like printing with profiles and soft proofing.
Unless you’re experienced in these techniques, sRGB is the one you should use. One more thing that you have to take note is that with Adobe RGB, you won’t be able to make use of your color profile in other softwares that are non Adobe product.
