If you've watched the CNN coverage of Operation ANACONDA in Afghanistan, you might catch a shot of the Military using an XL-1. It's sa real short shot so you might miss it.

Good to know that I wasn't hallucinating. Mike Avery March 7th, 2002, 08:26 AM It's my understanding the military is buying XL1's almost exclusively now....at least that's what I was told by a guy who sells camera covers to them. mike avery Rob Lohman March 7th, 2002, 09:20 AM We have military grade equipment.... whoohooo :) Adrian Douglas March 7th, 2002, 10:11 AM That's not always a good thing Rob. I spent 8 years in the Royal Australian Air Force working on F1-11's and F/A-18's. They were military grade and I always had a lot of work to do. :) We did use Canon L2's though for video work.
