UK XL1 owners club at DVinfo.net

Nick Glenister · July 31st, 2002, 04:11 AM

I've read some of the previous posts about the lack of a UK xl1 owners club but was wondering if there has been any update as to a UK club being created?

If not is there an ongoing petition I could sign to voice my support?

Regards

Nick

Well, I'd be up for it - but only two would not make a very impressive 'club'...;)

Well, if I can find an authorized Canon dealer in the UK to help sponsor our forums, then you're on the way. Still no answer from Optex. Great tagline, Jon.

That would be excellent

You can count me in too - that's three of us!

Make that four. Should we think about hiring the Millennium Dome for the Inaugural General Meeting?

I was hoping for the Royal Albert Hall. I'd swim across the pond for that.

Well in a week or so, my XL1-s arrives, so don't hold the first meeting until then. Any decent pub should do fine I reckon.

BTW, as a first post I'd like to thank you Chris for your website. Lots of information and you helped me choose the camera that I hope will make me rich and famous. Well, actually I'll settle for not working nights anymore.

Cheers for the interest guys, i think its pretty bad that canon don't give the rest of the world an XL1 club they can join. I'm sure they'd make enough money to warrant it.

Count me in for a Canon XL1/s owners club...

Surely Canon should provide such facility for the whole world.

All the best,

Al Osmond · August 13th, 2002, 01:06 PM

Ummm, I've got nothing smaller than a fifty pound note...
