I think he's asking about ripping discs, not how to convert movies in SDR.

UHD BD to BD?

US Sony exhibits better color timing and encode but has DNR applied in certain scenes unfortunately. EU SC exhibits wonky color timing in certain scenes and macroblocking (especially the UHD, Blu-ray encode is better in this regard) but doesn't have any visible DNR applied. Pick your poison scenario in my opinion.

Very bizarre that the StudioCanal UHD has encoding and color issues but no DNR, while the Sony release is near perfect aside a few shots that have been smeared ala Predator UHE.
Do we know for sure that the Sony and SC UHDs use the same restoration and not completely different ones? Are the framing in shots the exact same between the two or have noticble differences?

So the Sony UHD is completely different to the StudioCanal indeed. Aside from the grain removal during the blink-and-you'll-miss-it-close-up-shots, the Sony disc looks naturally sharper and the color timing is proper with pure whites! It's apparent that StudioCanals 4k resto is a completely different source (possibly an internegative) done and yellow plagued by Ritrovata.

Finally, the Goldeneye 4k sdr web is available, looking excellent so far, just busy converting it. CR, TND and LTK look excellent as well.

How's the compression? I'm downloading now myself but the file size seems way too small for decent quality 4K SDR (since SDR doesn't compress nearly as well as HDR). The GASMASK web rips of the Connery Bonds were much larger than these rips.

The Gasmask's are like you said rips usiing uncompressed hdmi capture and re-compressed where as these appear to be a direct capture of the original streams so should be better. Compared with the dnr'ed bluray Goldeneye is like a revelation.

I just checked it out for myself. As you say, it's head-and-shoulders above the BD which feels near unwatchable when compared side-by-side. Signs of the heavy compression are their for sure but most go unnoticed at a normal viewing distance. This will certainly do nicely until we get a proper UHD release.
 Incidentally the Laserdisc DTS audio syncs to this release with a delay of 7007ms. Thanks given by: X5gb
