I would like to know if I can get a copy of the PAL manual for the XM-2 or maybe a pdf file so I can download? My was stolen along with my baggages. I tried the official site but they only have the NTSC one.

Went to the UK Canon site - NO

Phoned Canon - automatic service puts you straight thru' to RSA. Yup, Canon UK should really have this in pdf, but there again . . . .

Looks like y'll have to cough up.

Not yet. I'll give'em a call next week. I don't see why they don't have at least a pdf file. It's rediculous.

Sorry but I have to correct you, it's "Bonne Chance" ;)

If there is a PDF written in French version.. it must be one in English one too.

Dany - I knew that! ;-)

Yeah - I've done a global search for Charles - no luck so far. Can't believe Canon UK hasn't this up on their website for us XM2ers.

Cheers for the french lesson - I think the french version of the XM2 manual would be lost on me - not proud, very humble though,

Here is a fix which removes the watermark that appears when you try to print the manual. As far as I know it works for most Canon manuals
