There are no "richer colors of sadRGB space". Colors are what they areand the task of color-manamement is to keep them like that.
Thank you, Timo,
Actually, I didn’t mean the richer color of the sRGB space, but the richer color of the picture I opened with that sRGB space.
I’ve already found my problem. the color management policy option made the difference.
For a color A in the original camera raw file.
if I opened it in photoshop by turning off the color setting, I saw color A/sRGB_ps. This is the wrong color. I saved it as a jpg file. when I opened the jpg with Acdsee or somewhat, I see color A/sRGB_monitor because it ignores the ICC. It makes sense, A/sRGB is not the original A/camera_RGB. I saw the same wrong color both in photoshop and acdsee.
if I opened it in photoshop by "convert to working RGB", A/camera_RGB was converted to B/sRGB_ps, and this is the correct color. If I opened the saved jpg, I saw B/sRGB_monitor. This is the correct color,too and I proved my monitor and photoshop have similar sRGB space.
if I opened it in photoshop by "preserve embedded color space". I saw A/camera_RGB in photoshop. and my acdsee showed the saved jpg file as A/monitor_sRGB. I saw the correct color in photoshop but a wrong one in acdsee.
My previous problems are solved. But here comes a new one. why my camera has a different sRGB with my computer. It doesn’t look like I can sync them by calibrate my monitor if I can see the correct on by "convert". they just seem to be different color spaces.
