I finally got around to play some testing of a short video clip. The testing is mainly for it sizes and quality.
Scrubbing on the timeline, Cineform wins hands down, very smooth out of all three different codecs. But for it small file size, XDCAM 35mbps and 25mbps bluray is a good deal to.

Can you guys see the different?? Try to watch 1080P to see more details

I had some trouble playing the 1080 but Huffy and Neoscene colors were a little richer on my monitor, other than that they all looked good.

What you are actually demonstrating is the benefit of an intermediate codec (in this case Cineform). The reason it looks best is that when you reencode the video when you export it, it does less damage to the video. After all, that is a primary reason to use an intermediate codec. I don't see any quality difference between Cineform and Huffyuv (lossless).
