Mpeg2 iframe only.

h264  isn't a bad choice as there are very high bit rate 10/12 bit iframe options if your encoder can do it.

animation / photojpeg is 8bit, which may not be bad, but probably not ideal if your source is all 10bit, or you did a lot of grading /comping where 10bit is your friend.

just waiting for apple to screw up ProRes

Thanks for the info. Although archiving on a blu-ray sounds good, I would rather have everything backed up on a server. I'll probably look into the JPEG 2000 in MXF.

It's a bit of pain to work with so you might also store a more accessible
