Mixing of different camera formats. We solve this by converting virtually all formats to CineForm files. This is an outtake of and explination of Cineform intermediate. Does this mean it will accept standard definition video and make it a Cineform intermediate

Yes, SD works also.

We used multiple cameras and formats (from DV to HDV, P2, and HDCAM) in our film, and we converted everything to Cineform HD. Then color corrected in Premiere for a consistent look. All effects were also rendered to Cineform from After Effects. We also shot SD but we upconverted using a different technique, better than HDLink.
The only time we rendered uncompressed was to transfer to digibeta for a festival projection (coming up in september) and that was because the transfer house didn't use Cineform.
Cineform is perfect (and small). You can't go wrong with it.
