I think 3:1 is nice compromise.

No ffv1 does not understand RAW data, but I managed to unpack RAW data into 16bit TIFF and than encode it.
No idea if I broken 12bit DNG or not
After debayering it looks fine, so maybe not
5:1 is okay because it hides the artifacts well enough when downsampling from 5K to 2K. Even seen the native resolution compressed that much? There are tons of picture artifacts like rampant softening and poor chroma resolution.
