Redcode and Down-Sampling Question

[Max Field]

So with the DSMC2 generation of RED, if shooting in Redcode you can't go down to 4k resolution without the sensor cropping in on your lens.

8K resolution is very excessive for what I do but I was curious if shooting in 15:1 8K and then bouncing out a 2K finish would still leave noticeable edge artifacting.

Is the equation as simple as 8k 10:1 = 4K 5:1?

Thanks for any input.

Yea, 15:1 is excessive for raw, you'll see problems if you're moving the camera around a lot. I learned you have to shoot in pretty much full imager to get the best out of these cameras.
