I would say in 2023 as of this moment. RED remains the closest to a "digital negative" as their signal seems to be the least processed out of gate with the added benefit of dealing with actual RAW data.
Do you remember when the same people where bashing Red One in 2008 saying R3D was not real RAW?
Now they bake instagram fuss into their "texture" raw...
But it also looks like they do compress the raw in the dowloading process between the card/cardreader and the harddrive to have less data to handle and get around the compressed raw patent.
