The R5 raw is not raw, I graded and shot a lot of R5 footage and the lossy compression is evident in the shadow detail. The noise floor is really bad, barely any information can be harvested from the shadows.
Curious, which raw format are you talking about, looking at the 5R specs and it seems to have 3 options for raw.
Where the 2600Mbps option is called raw and not raw light
8k Raw (29.97p/25.00p/24.00p/23.98p): Approx. 2600 Mbps
8k Raw (Light) (29.97p/25.00p): Approx. 1700 Mbps
8k Raw (Light) (24.00p/23.98p): Approx. 1350 Mbps
Recording is in 12-bit, so if I calculate correct non compressed should be about 10000 Mbps. (12-bit at 24fps)
So the highest options has a compression ratio of 4:1.
