Interestingly, our GL2 forum is easily the largest on the internet for this camera. Maybe everybody's out shooting!

Yup -- maybe all the questions have been answered! So now we're dealing with a "silent" majority...

Maybe everybody's eagerly awaiting the GL3. Doh- I should've said that in the Area 51 forum. Now I've gone and done it.

...but it's got to be black! I don't want silver, or sludgey green - it's go to be black black black!

It's always like this in the fall. It will start getting busier around the middle to the end of November. This is the lull before the holidays.

Ah, the Fall.
I've always wanted to visit Vermont to see the Fall.
I end up seeing it via webcams on the internet.
I've have this feeling that we're going to have a beautiful Autumn here in the UK this year. Time to get out the Vivaldi again...

Grazie babe - you are getting paranoid about matte boxes!!!
All I meant was that a nice bit of Vivaldi on the old sound track would sound a treat with all those shots of golden foliage...
Or Delius, or Albinoni...
(but not Wagner)
Whoever heard of a matte box called Vivaldi...huh!!!

Ciao,

Robin

Well... Aside from a dead firewire issue, things have been fine with my trusty GL1. I don't get to use it much, just the occasional job.

And that 1394 issue? It seems my Storm card went belly up. It was RMA'd, and is on it's way back to Canopus to get fixed... I mean REPAIRED ;)

Grazie, what's this whole thing about the matte box!!?? lol
I'm getting worried, you've been going on about this for ages.

Lets face it, they don't look too good on an ickle XM2.....and that’s all it's for .........isn’t it??...so it looks good. I've got you figured out ... ;)
