I know this is an old topic, but I've been trying several workflows, and this one was very interesting and simple. Working around this workflow I found something interesting.

I like this workflow because I consider Lightroom a very powerful tool to work with raw images, and it has a lot of options regarding color. But my problem was that the final JPG files, even though they were in the highest quality, remained to be 8 bit.

So, after some tries, I found this:

Follow the same workflow, once you have edited your sequence, instead of replacing the low res JPGs with HQ JPGs, export from Lightroom a PSD sequence in 16 bits. Then unlink the low red JPGs in Premiere, and re-link to the PSD.
Happily export to Pro res 4444 @ 16 bits.

This workflow has one more step than the previous one, but still I find it interesting to color correct in LR. You can still go back and forth from Premiere and LR.

I just checked, and I have a 1.3 GB MLV file, that after being "uncompressed" by MLRawViewer, the resulting folder is barely 700 MB.

I tried with 1.3.3 AND 1.4.3

(Edit:I just did a quick test with a RAW file, and MLRawViewer 1.4.3 makes a MRX file, as far as I know useless. But RAWMagic Lite, turns a 900 MB RAW to a 1.2 GB DNG Folder) So I guess I'll be sticking with that for a while.)
