So then why not just use the raw data? Demosaicing triples the number of pixels, so expands the data by 3x.


(Conceptually, the number of pixels remains the same but the result of demosaicing is RGB pixels so what triples is the number of channels.)

I hear it's good to perform demosaicing, denoising and super-resolution in one step, so perhaps that's what's happening here?

EDIT: on the video (section "Log is Half-Baked"), they also mention the processing includes tone mapping, color adjustment and lens distortion correction.


A lossy compressed intra-frame codec such as ProRes 422 HQ still gives a lower bitrate.
