Matching Cameras with a Gemini in a Multi-Camera Setup

Hi,

I'm shooting some interviews for an upcoming documentary project and would like to do some of these with a two camera setup.

The A cam is a Gemini (which I own); I was planning to rent another Gemini for the B cam when I need two cameras.

I've hit a snag as it looks like I won't be able to rent a Gemini at the first location (the rental house only has a Komodo...I could maybe travel into a different country and back to get a Gemini. This may end up happening in multiple locations). I am wondering for instances when using another Gemini would be extremely difficult to come by what cameras comes closest/will it be noticeable?

I also have a Scarlet-X (which I am planning to sell) - the main problem matching these appears to be the difference in sensitivity (I did a gray card test in the same light: Gemini went green at f5.2, Scarlet-X at f3.5). I suppose I could use an ND or bring down the brightness in post, but this seems sub-optimal.

I am wondering if Gemini is unique in its sensitivity, or if any RED cameras are the same?

Thanks
