Hello there. I know this isn't about Premiere Pro specificaly, but it's about video editing and rendering, so, can someone please help me? So, during confinement we had to start working somehow and luckily my wife job can be done remotely using a video platform (fitness professional). So we started to record her doing her classes and trainings. Since I'm at home without anything to do I started to try to up a bit the video quality of her recordings and started to research about it (my job has nothing to do with video). But that research lead to sooo many questions.... I have a camera that can record h.264 or Hevc at 8 or 10bit. The place has great lightning (its indoors, but I can use the lowest iso and the double shutter speed with no problem) and it's a white wall with some color and lights at the sides. But not that so much color. So my first question is... 1) Is it worthy to record at 10bit? I mean, the camera is static and there is not that much color in the scene. And is there any point of recording in 10bit, and then export from the video editing program in 8bit? Plus, I would like to record in hevc because files in h.264 and 4k can get massive and storage will become a problem in the near future. But, the video platform she uses advises to use h.264 (it accepts hevc as well, but it advises the older one). So, 2) should I render the files in h.264 even if they are recorded in hevc? That raises two questions... 3) If I lower the bitrate when recording in Hevc, how does the ramping up of bitrate when converting to h.264 works? Will the video be limited to the hevc bitrate? Because the point of me using hevc is to have smaller files, so, lower bitrate... But h.264 needs a higher bit rate... Thank you for all your help and I'm so sorry if those are very basic questions...
