I want to buy an XL2 at DVinfo.net

Henry Gray · November 4th, 2006, 05:16 AM

Can anyone in the UK tell me where I can buy a new XL2 ?

I enquired from my usual supplier five weeks ago and was told they were out of stock. I placed an order with them over two weeks ago and have been told they dont know when they will get their next delivery.

Canon UK are no help, they just say take it up with your dealer.

I have sent countless emails to all the suppliers I know and most dont even reply, not even our UK sponsor.

All I want is a new, boxed camera, not a grey import.

HELP

I'm sure the guys at 'The Camcorder Centre' in Glasgow or Edinburgh will be able to assist. And I believe H.Preston in England still does them...?

Hi Henry,

I got mine last month from Creative Video. It took ten days for them to get a delivery from Canon. Maybe canon are phasing them out.

www.creativevideo.co.uk

I had some problems with their website so I phoned the order instead. Would definitely buy from them again.
