To deliver a HD show, 1080 30p, what would be the best export options from native premiere? Its going to be converted to HDCAM or HDCAM SR, was wondering what settings/codec you guys would recommend for the least (or none at all) compression.. Thanks

Lagarith, UT or uncompressed.

Thanks, will check out Lagarith. As for bit rate, any specific details? Are there any hardware rendering options? I"m guessing Lagarith is an option if one were to not wanting to stick with adobe's native software encoder?

ps, what are some solid dedicated encoding softwares that are out there that will work well with cs5/64 bit environment

No bit rate settings, no hardware required, simply use AME and choose Lagarith, UT or uncompressed and export.

Was able to encode using lagrith but windows couldnt play back the file, i' mnot sure if the post house will be able to play back the lagarith encoded file when they out put to HDCAM..

What dedicated encoders are people using here? Also, does any of Premiere's native settings work well for HDCAM delivery?

Why not ask the post house what they prefer?
