I recomend you to make 2 versions: one in 4k to match the RED footage and one in 2K. When moving all the comp to the 2k change the 4k for the 2k versions and aply all the changes that has been made on it.
If you up-convert 1080P material to 4K and then later down-convert to 2K you are ganna lose some spatial resolution in the process.

Buy the 5d and a JuicedLink XLR adapter. that´s it.
The DVX100 it´s a great camera but lets face it… it´s geting old.

I personally will be happy only with the solution of the aliasing/moire problem, that thing can mess-up a lot of shots. Also a better codec for video will be awesome, 4:2:2. rolling shutter, can be fixed in post and not always it´s an issue. Xlr it´s to much, is still a DSLR!
Also headphone is a very simple thing to do. -
I´m going to give you the trick that I´m using.
I´m shooting a movie with my 7d(550d it´s almost the same in electronics) this days and it consist in a “all night, low light shooting”. The true to make your footage usable in post is to get the perfect exposure of your shot, do not under expose “NEVER” because of the limitation of the h.264 codec. The codec gets a little nasty when you try to bring up all the “under exposed image”, so try to get the perfect exposure, use the camera metering to guide you “DON´T THRUST ON YOUR EYE” whatching the LCD because they are very bright.
I´m shooting in ISO 1250, you may think “That´s a lot of gain” and yes it´s a lot of noise for the big screen BUT… Im geting a perfect exposure and that lets me work a lot with the footage. Also the trick is… “Do Noise Reduction”, I use the “DeNoise” plugin from “Re:vision FX” and it´s… Perfect. The footage looks perfect, the exposure is perfect and the final product looks perfect. The only problem is that Denoising takes time of render but thats an other thing.
Good luck.

“Render a high-quality file from AE, and use a different application to do the compression”
Well that is the way I do it. I just was looking for a VERY nice codec recomendetion for mastering the original timeline from AE. I finally decided by using DNxHD, Thanks.

With jpeg compression you mean mjpeg or jpeg sequence? h.264 it´s out of my options. I use Pc so I don´t have ProRes, but i remember have used avid´s DNxHD one time I think i could give a try. Thanks.

Mi project is in full Hd(1920 x 1080). I know it´s gonna take some Gbs of space thats is not the problem, I don´t wanna use uncompress it way to heavy. H.264 based codecs are not very reliable for a Master. So thats because i was thinking on mjepg or animation (I-frame only and 4:4:4). Any recomendations?
