Whoa threadjacking.
To answer Zacshome... the closer you get to your final look in camera, the less noise and artifacting you're likely to have in the final product (unless you're using the expose-to-the-right and crush blacks later method). You can also give the director a better idea of the final product on set. You can also speed postproduction. I don't usually shoot flat because I don't always get to be the colorist on my own projects.
Reelrain... the HVX200 is a fraction of the cost of the Red One. Usually you're better off determining your budget first, and then figuring out what camera fits your plan and your budget. Remember that post production on a "digital cinema" camera like the red is a lot more labor intensive or expensive than a video camera.
Barry has a thread on feature films shot on HVX here somewhere.

please put the words "SCENE FILE" and your preferred screen name in the subject line
i.e. "SCENE FILE bubbadeluxe"
and please include a description of the file. what you use it for and
attach a screen shot (or still frame export) of the results of your scene file
eventually i'll build a submission interface to make this easier. but i want to make sure there is enough demand before i waste a bunch of effort ; )
