Hi there
I am Mike Wattley from Symbiosis, EMEA Distributor for Convergent Design. May I ask where you got your Gemini/ARRIRAW Licence for our records? ProRes won't be supported on the Gemini, but there will be a FREE DNxHD upgrade coming soon.. watch this space.

Sorry for late reply; We got it (ArriRaw option) from our Cineflex / Convergent Design reseller located in Munich Germany. We see a potential opportunity for the Gemini 4:4:4 to gain market on this professional level since the internal Arri Alexa recorder "only" at this time supports the 64 GB SxS cards (way to small). Based in Sweden and knowing the market, Scandinavia seems to prefer the Prores Codec on most high-end productions at this moment therefore the Gemini 4:4:4 is left back in the hangar due to the lack of the sought after Prores option. Please reconsider and let us (customers) decide if it's worth it.
