Hi.
If you go prorez you lose red raw support like changing iso or kelvin temp.
I find this the most useful options in color with red. I have seen never material that are identical in
luminance levels so you can go back and play a bit with iso if needed.There is workflows using prores and later making suitable connections in your xml.
Imac wil be nice with prorez but i bet with raw files it io will melt down in sence of time.
Look into Rubber Monkey Extract and Crimson Workflow.
If system and timetable could handle it i would make small prorez and later use
original files in grading.—

You have this 30 years that counts. Not what you use but what comes out is that matter 🙂

Yes use modern stuff. With multibridge which i also have it is really no brainer and simple as that.
Just put in small sync generator and be worry free 🙂
I even do not remember that i have a generator.

I would say that imac is even a bit worse than mac book pro as it has one gpu.
At least my test with i5 mbp with 2 gpu’s compared to 1 gpu core 2 duo imac i see results from mbp.
OK io wil be slow either case but one manages to play faster fps on the same material.So my conclusion would be 2 gpu’s and more general cpu power and we will have fun.
Exactly as BM have specified details for really good reason.—

If you have ati then you are busted.
If you got nvidia in the imac it could work for education.
But still you have to wait to see if it will come live on your system.—

It seems pointless to run on one gpu as it will bog down in some point.
Then the whole realtime advantage goes bad and people will be complaining.
I’d stick to 2 specified gpu’s to get most fun out of the system—
