Buying a 16x manual lens? at DVinfo.net

Hey -

I am planning on buying the Canon 16x manual lens for the XL2... but I can't seem to find it on B&H. They have a lens on there that they SAY is that lens, but it LOOKS to me like the 14x, it looks cheaper than it used to be, and it only specifies compatibility with the XL1 and XL1S.

Here is the link B&H gave me for the lens, which is the same one I found: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/cont...ughType=search

Is that correct? I just want to be sure before I order. Thanks.

That is the correct lens.

Someone has a used one for sale in the classified section here as well.

Thank you. :) Just wanted to be sure, since I thought I had seen it elsewhere.
