    I work with Avid and I’m comfortable rendering to the Avid codec’s for my work, it’s not “lossless” but I can’t see any degradation.

    If you need the best, render to a lossless codec, like Quicktime Animation, or .AVI. If you don’t need audio, you could all render to a Tiff or PNG sequence. All of these are going to produce extremely large files that depending on your edit system will probably need to be transcoded at some point before final delivery.

    It will be a large file, but you won’t lose anything when you re-edit the file.

    Are you doing the edit or is someone else? If it’s someone else, then ask the editor what they prefer.
