Q: 1. Is this compatible with Bowen Calumet Travelite flash head?

A: No the 3000Ws Flash Tube for Bowens Gemini 750 Pro (UV) will not work on the 750 Travelite. For the Travelite 750 you need the Photogenic Bowens-Type FT750 Clear Flash Tube for Travelite, Esprit & Gemini BH #PHFT750CLR.

Q: 2. does this work being plugged into an ipad or ipad pro?

A: Yes, the Z CAM IPMAN Gemini Pro dual HDMI UVC capture dongle will support the iPad Pro with USB-C connectors. Please note the Gemini requires iOS version 17 or above.

Q: 3. Does this work with a7rii?

A: Yes this is compatible with Sony cameras that have the Multi-Interface Shoe like the A7 R II.

Q: 4. will this work with ellingchromes as well and will the Ellingchrome work with the Bowens?

A: No, it will not. The Bowens XMTRC Flash Trigger for Canon, B&H # BOBW5195C, is specifically designed for use with the Bowens XMT500 TTL Battery Powered 500Ws Monolight, which has a built-in Bowens XMT radio receiver. The receiver is not available as a separate purchase for use with other flashes, and the Bowens XMTRC Flash Trigger for Canon will not work with other brand/model strobe units (it is not even compatible with older Bowens flash units; the Bowens XMT500 Monolight is the only TTL monolight ever released by Bowens). As the Bowens XMT500 Monolight has a 1/8" (3.5mm) miniphone sync terminal on the bottom of the unit, you could purchase the Elinchrom Skyport receiver to connect to the sync terminal on the bottom of the unit, and you can purchase an Elinchrom Skyport transmitter for use on your camera, and that setup would wirelessly trigger the monolight. However, you will have to set the flash output power manually, as you cannot control the flash output of the Bowens XMT500 from the Elinchrom transmitter on the camera, and there would not be TTL automatic flash output when using the Elinchrom transmitter; you must use the Bowens transmitter if you need TTL flash output or the ability to set the flash output from the transmitter mounted on the camera.

Q: 5. Will it work with a Bowens 750 Gemini Pro as well?

A: This flash tube will work with a Gemini 750 Pro.

Q: 6. Does OBS see the Gemini Pro as one single video input device or as two separate video devices?

A: OBS will see the Gemini as 2 separate USB devices

Q: 7. I am having trouble with this transmitter on 2 parts. Using this transmitter with the Bowens XMT500s1. I can not get the XMTR transmitter on my Nikon D750 to go into TTL Mode. I have been up and down the menu in the transmitter and it will only stay in STR. For something that should be rather simple it has now crossed into frustrating. I have followed the instructions, but still wont go into TTL. What am I missing? 2. On my Nikon once the transmitter is in the hot shoe, I can not crank shutter speed over 1/250th to engage HSS. I have gone into the menu and engaged the 1/250th (Auto FP) but the camera will not roll past 1/250th. Any help or suggestions are appreciated!
