Does FCP output a 4:4:4 color space movie?

If not, what?

I'd be very interested in this as well.

I would think it depends on your output codec. (then again, I haven't used FCP, but this holds true for most other NLE's)

4:2:2 is the best it can do w/o plugins.

I use Sheer Video (Link) for archiving.

AFAIK at 100% quality MJPEG A/B and Photo-JPEG are 4:4:4.

EDIT: Not to be anal, but 4:4:4, 4:2:2, 4:2:0, etc., refer to chroma subsampling. 601 (SD) and 709 (HD) are examples of color space.
