Can you easily work with Pro Res formats in Premiere? Will be capturing with a Ki Pro and probably cutting in FCP for "same as source" outputs.
1080P 29.97 (psf) or 720p 59.94

If you are on a Mac (and have FCP installed) it should work. Don´t know how snappy it will be thou.

I would be exporting from a mac to deliver to a client who edits in PC CS5. Is there a better format to use? I need to delivers slects for compositing on the PC side. This is all green screen raw footage, thus wanting to deliver full raster 4:2:2. We are shooting on an HPX 500.

If you're using FCP, you will NEED to send a JPEG screenshot of your NLE with the footage open. I've found that ProRes footage from FCP had the gama incorrectly shown in my editor and I had to tweak it before exporting. At the other end, your Premiere Pro editor will look at the JPEG and the Video in the same timeline and adjust gamma on the video untill they match. At this time JPEG has a better color management system than Quicktime videos do so that's why this is a good method for insuring accurate gamma.
ProRes 4:2:2 is a good delivery codec though. Ideally if you could give a native DVCProHD in an MXF container back to him it would not have any gama shift, but I don't believe you can do that in FCP without any extra software.
Until Apple gets their gamma issues worked out with Quicktime, you will always have gamma issues exporting out of Final Cut when using a quicktime container. FCP to FCP should have no issues, as long as the exported QT file looks the same as your source when it's in the timeline.

Oh man, that sounds like a nightmare.
