Since I'm not involved in the feature film work I was intrigued by your request
to access RGB Channels at 16 bits. Is that the channel bit resolution needed by
films?

Most films are done in 8 bit, 10, or 12. Rarely is 16 bit used due to the
tremendous computational and storage requirements it uses. "True Lies", for
example, was all 8 bit.
