[Jon Egan] "At the moment I'm just exploring my export options. Ideally i'm just looking to export the whole edited film is the best possible quality. Just a single video file. Does that make sense?"
Generally, you'll choose a file format based on your needs.
If you're looking for a lightly-compressed, mastering-quality format that supports 4K, consider CineForm.
