It sounds like you may be using ColorMatchRGB as your *camera* profile which
is not the intent of any of Photoshop's RGB working spaces although one
*may* work for you. Better would be to custom profile your camera and then
convert from here to an appropriate RGB working space. The camera profile
can be used to tag the image from your camera software if it can do it or
simply assign this profile to the image in Photoshop prior to converting to
your working space of choice.
What RGB working space to use/convert to? I'd compare color gamuts and
choose the working space that results in little to no clipping. In other
words, the one that's the same "size" or perhaps a bit larger than your
camera profile.
