i would be delivering reels of cineon/dpx sequences. Thats why i asked originally if FCP6 was capable of this.
Doing color correction thru a HD monitor would i think suffice with maybe a 2-3 day color grade check/adjust done in an actual lab as opposed to 5-10days of color grade in a lab. The lab i actually spoke to recommended getting shots in a scene even before bringing it to them as it saves time. Seriously saving $30-50000 for a neglible image difference is always worth it. That money could definitely be spent elsewhere.
What i amreally doing is testing the waters. The smart thing would be to shoot digitally but if they want to shoot 35mm i dont have a say. Just trying to provide answers.
thanks for all your help guys i appreciate it..
