there is no way you will find a gl2 or vx2100 for 1000-1200. Id go sony hdr-hc1 or used gl1 or vx1000

id say a gl2 vx1000 or vx1200. out of those id get the vx1000 its probably the best for skiing stuff, but the gl2 is really really close, i just havent heard alot about it so i dont know.

i thought the gl2 was like around 1500? and the 2100 cheaper? mabye im wrong, but the vx1000 you can get for like 1100 and mabye around 9000 if your lucky, and its better than both those cameras in alot of ways.
