When transcoding the raw from red rushes to 1920x1080 and a form of ProRes which option is better to use? 422 HQ looks great and though large is a smaller file than the 444. Though 444 produces better colors, no subsampling and is one of the highest HD files to transcode to. Though is it worth it if your taking a 4k file and transforming it into a 1920x1080 frame?
 
I suppose it depends what are delivery standards and what are your personal needs. 444 will take much more HDD space although.
