First part used an LED light on camera; last clips are ambient light.

Workflow: raw2dng => DNGs to ACR+AE => rendered as 175Mbps 10-bit 422 DNxHD MOV => edited in Premiere Pro CS6. AE CS6 Render Settings / Render Depth set to 16-bit and Output Module / Depth set to Trillions of colors (to make sure DNxHD was getting >= 10 bit color).
12-Core MacPro (running Win7x64) renders DNG to DNxHD at ~6FPS.
Komputerbay 32GB 1000X (supports 1920x1080). Have 2 64GB 1000X on order. 128GB 1000X can only support 1920x900; was going to return it however Amazon offered a very generous discount to keep it (useful enough to keep).

yeah, too bad Warp Stabilizer is not as good as Deshaker: https://vimeo.com/4987665 (which is free).
Updated videos with Warp Stabilizer turned down (but not off). Always better to shoot it right; didn't have much time to take those shots...
 
When shooting models, it's important to keep a soft look; not too sharp. I used -33 for ACR's "Clarity" which appears to be either some form of LCE (local contrast enhancement) or some kind of bilateral filter or surface blur (when set negative). Edges are kept reasonably sharp, but other elements are smoothed. Still sharper, more detailed, lower noise, and better color vs. native H.264.
I didn't see any professional model shoots on planet5D? Link?

@nikon- very cool model shoots. The clip I shot was an unplanned one take right before I left in a hurry for a meeting; just wanted to see how raw worked on skin tones.

Here's a version using Deshaker to stabilize:
