I am selling my Canon XL2 video camera. It was purchased in the late fall of 2007, and used for one video during the winter. It was not used this past summer or fall. It is in excellent shape. The XL2 is a perfect piece of video equipment for the advanced amateur, student or professional photographer. It has xlr mic inputs, detachable lens, all manual controls, etc. It features a 16 by 9 size sensor, so it is easy to shoot in the standard widescreen ratio. Frame rates from 24p to 60i. The flexibility is remarkable with this camera. It can be used for broadcast television, film like movies, etc. The XL2 has been regarded as the top independent filmmaker's camera for years. It comes just as I purchased it from Calumet Photographic a year ago. Included: body, stock lens, microphone, lens hood, strap, all cords/cables, remote control, manual, original box, one battery.
All the little HDV cams are fine and well, but in less you are ready to drop a ton of money on a HVX or equivalent, an XL2 will produce a much better product.
