Filmic Pro ProRes 422HQ vs H265 10 bit comparison

[JamesRicarte]

Codec has an impact on how the footage looks too, the prores feels like organic to me while the h.645 looks more digital to me maybe because it is more compressed

I’ve always been under the impression that h.265 was going to be a worse overall quality video. So if my camera records in h.265 and also creates proxies, would I still get the ProRes equivalent essentially but use the proxies for a better editing experience?
