XL2 Menu Structure
 
Does anyone know of a website that has a comprehensive listing of the XL2 Menu Structure displayed graphically as seen in the display?

I'm aware of the few images in the "XL2 Watchdog - Image Gallery". I'm hoping that Canon has this available somewhere like they included in the XL1s manual: a line drawing of each and every display in the menu structure.

There is a non-graphical representation as an article on the Watchdog as
well (which funny enough is the first result if you search on "xl2 menu"
[without the quotes] on google):

That's probably the best there is out there. Why not make a graphical
representation yourself and offer it to the rest of the members here? If I
had an XL2 I'd do it myself, but alas....

Rob,

I guess you're correct, I'll have to do Canon's job for them.

So, I guess I'll just leave the lens cap on, display each screen and take a digital snapshot. Then converting that to line drawings would be too cumbersome, unless in PS the images are converted to B&W the polarity reversed; that should be close to a line drawing.

Nothing as fancy as that Patrick. I would just draw the structure in either a
paint program or something like Microsoft Visio. Just to show the relation to
all the menu options, which screen "grabs" will still not show you.
