F3: Sony F3 CBK RGB01 with Pix

[ChristianMoriarty]

Since my acquisition of an F3 with the RGB upgrade, I've have the "A" output set to
RGB 444 & recording to Pix as ProRes HQ for normal recording and ProRes 444 for Green Screen.
My question is - is this right?
Should I be using the 3G YPbPr 422?
Images look fine as I come from the school of "Press the Gas"
Best,

4444 will always be "better" than 422. The question is whether you need it.
It will grade better than 422 also. Only you can decide if the post-penalty is worth the extra.

For green screen I'd absolutely suggest shooting 4:4:4. You'll have twice as much red and blue colour information to pull your keys with.
