Thanks in advance,Maurizio.

Hello Maurizio,

If you've not already done so take a look at our "XL1S Skinny" page. It may answer some of your questions.

There are a number of improvements of XL-1 to the S. Most of the faults were cured.

Still, a number of people have not upgraded to the S staying with the old 1. Why? Simply put the old XL-1 still a very good cam and money that could be used for the upgrade are used to buy lenses like the 14X or 16X manual lenses.

Maurizio, please go back about 4 pages on this post and see the post I did on compairing the XL-1 and the XL-1s. Bob Safay

Thanks to all.Bob,very interesting.Thanks again.
Maurizio.
