VL is not campatible to XL!!! Armand Rocco February 12th, 2002, 03:37 PM Thank You ! I have passed it on to Ebay seller who has posted a retraction http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1332225702 Don Palomaki February 12th, 2002, 06:15 PM Canon VL series lenses were for the L1/L2 series camcorders. It is a different size mount, and the lenses were designed for a single 1/2" CCD, not for a 1/3" CCD with prism. As far as I know, no one has brought out an adapter that would allow mounting a VL lens on an XL1. The XL1/XL1s takes XL series lenses and adapters. |
