Also, how common would it be to record straight to camera through a 422?

Also: don't do the above if you don't have to (ie, mixing the booms to one track, lavs to another) if you have the ability to record them to their own individual tracks! you'll save yourself a lot of work on set - and a lot of potential problems in post. you should hope that all you'll have to do is mix the multiple inputs for your camera sends.

as per running a 442 straight to camera - it's very common in the ENG/doc world - because there's no time/budget for someone to deal with the isolated audio tracks in post.
