  Which is the BEST video codec ??

  I know this question is very old, but now I’m very confused with all I have read
  Which could be the BEST video codec for SD video?? (in order to do EDITING, NOT to be uploaded)
  Obviously talking about a reasonable size ratio files and best possible good quality (don’t tell me RAW OR UNCOMPRESSED, you know what I mean), I always use quicktime Sorenson 3 but I know that apple declared Sorenson 3 obsolete, so which could be the best video codec with approximately the same size rate of space in files than sorenson 3 ? , sorenson 3 was not bad and a small difference in quality than Photo Jpeg or Jpeg2000 codecs but a big difference in size ratio, by the way I have tried the quicktime H.264 in the best posible quality but it’s terribly poor

  So which could be a better codec than sorenson 3 but with approx. the same size ratio in files ? for SD video

  Thank you in advance
