John,

Sorry, I do not have an extended warranty. I have had no problems at all with the camera. I am the orginal owner and have babied the camera for the few small projects that I have done.

John Arman · December 6th, 2005, 01:22 PM

Mike I;m just alittle gun shy at this point, I bought a new GL2 about 16 months ago and after it was out or warranty I had to spend 899.00 for a repair. Has it been sent in to be cleaned and serviced at all ?

Mike Mehlhorn · December 6th, 2005, 01:46 PM

John,

I have not required any service on this camera. I have consistently used the same brand (Panasonic) tapes, and have run a head cleaning tape after I had recorded about 6 tapes. There are no known problems with my camera, and it has been treated with kit gloves. Obviously I cannot predict the future, nor understand if the problem you experienced was a quality issue with your unit or a systemic design issue with Canon. Having monitored the discussions on this site over the past year, I have heard much more positive then negative about this camera. I did alot of research before purchasing my camera and have been fortunate to not experience any problems. I am sorry you had a bad experience with your camera.

John Arman · December 6th, 2005, 01:53 PM

Mike if you don't mind me asking where did you purchase the camera?

Mike Mehlhorn · December 6th, 2005, 01:56 PM

I purchased the camera new from www.onecall.com

John Arman · December 6th, 2005, 02:13 PM

Thank you Mike, I wil have to think on it and talk to my business partners.

Adam Rench · December 6th, 2005, 03:06 PM

Just posted it on another site so I'll close this one for now. If still interested still feel free to email me and I can let you know if it's still for sale.

thanks.

Hi David. How are you?

Noah Hayes · December 6th, 2005, 05:06 PM

Wow, not even one response? Well, I guess I'll be keeping it. If anyone finds this post and is interested/has questions post back here or email me at NoahPHayes@aol.com

I'd like to hear any offers (makes a good capture/vacation cam for those of you with XL2's and other SD cams)

Patrick Smith · December 6th, 2005, 05:31 PM

Be patient. My optura 300 is on two pages, of me just bumping it. good luck!

This item is being offered here prior to being listed on Ebay, it's part of a former 2 camera package of which one unit was sold last month. The description is accurate and I fully stand behind it. BTW, this is the text from my previous Ebay auction, pics are avail on request. Miguel

CANON GL-2 PRACTICALLY NEW

This Canon GL2 ($ 2195.00) is one of 2 which were purchased for a startup Wedding and Event Video business, I’ve upgrading to HD so I’m offering my SD equipment here today. This GL2 was purchased in April of 2004 and has less than 25 HONEST hours of use. The heads have only been used to record, I only playback on my JVC Mini-DV dubbing and production deck. I’ve shot 2 birthday parties and 2 weddings so this really is practically new.

The lens has never been exposed and has always had a Canon WD-58 Wide Angle Lens ($175.00) kit attached (shown in the pictures) and will be included. This is a great lens, excellent optics and on par with Century Optics for the fraction of the cost. In video production you can never have a “wide enough” shot so this lens adds a little weight but is a must!

Also included is the Sign Video XLR Pro ($159.00) audio input mixer. This is a must to bring professional wireless or wired mics into the camera. This unit acts as a mixer, adds XLR and/ or mini-plug inputs to your GL2 and also provides the option of keeping 2 mics on 1 stereo pair assigned as Left and Right. Say you’re shooting a wedding and you have 2 wireless packs in use (one on the groom and one of the pastor), you can now keep each mic isolated to Left and Right for better control in post production.

Batteries and charger, included you’ll get the original small capacity stock battery and (1) Canon BP945 extended life battery ($85.00 list)

I’m also including all original manuals, packing, cables, remotes and boxes, I take very good care of my gear and it starts with keeping everything original.

In all this setup is worth OVER $ 2600.00 dollars and I’m selling it here now for $ 2000.00 with a Buy it Now (same as reserve).

I'm trying to sell a camera here...I guess folks aren't into making offers are they? Somebody will get a great deal on this...it's funny because people don't seem to be into the the package deal even though I guarantee they end up buying all of the extra items I have for sale at some point. Would you like to buy it?

Just checked the new prices on this unit. Guess I should have done that before I posted the ad. They have come down considerably from win I purchased it. I am lowering the price to $1250.

Chris Scharff · December 7th, 2005, 01:17 AM

Greetings,
I have for sale these two items mentioned. These are both brand new and only used once to test on the camera. I recently received these as part of a GL accessory kit that I bought from someone else on here, yet I do not need these two items. Both items are sold by themselves (no manuals or boxes). Please e-mail me with any questions. I will sell the mic for $95 shipped anywhere in the U.S. and the light for $25 shipped anywhere in the U.S.
Purchase both for $110 shipped and save!
