If you are looking for a great camcorder to do in house productions at your church or for your youth group, you may want to consider the Canon GL2. In this price range, you will be hard pressed to find a better camcorder.
With the GL2, Canon has created a camcorder with a wealth of features, each selected to elevate further the standard against which other camcorders are judged. The GL2 is a must-have for the person looking for the very best video-making experience. The GL2's excellence begins with its outstanding Fluorite lens and includes pro-level picture adjustment features found only in Canon's top-of-the-line, trend-setting XL1S camcorder.
Some of our favorite features are the GL2's three shooting modes: Normal Movie Mode, Digital Photo Mode, and the cinema-like Frame Movie Mode popularized by Canon's leading-edge XL1 and XL1S. The GL2 also offers both the standard 4:3 aspect ratio and 16:9 wide screen TV aspect ratio.
Features include:
- Digital Video Format and IEEE 1394
- 3 CCD
- Professional L-series Fluorite Lens
- Optical Image Stabilizer
- Shooting Modes and Aspect Ratios
- Exposure Modes
- Shooting Enhancements
- Picture Adjustments
- Audio Adjustments
- Audio and Video Inputs and Outputs
- Custom Keys and Presets
- MultiMediaCard / SD Memory Card Capability
- And More
We give this camcorder the EXW:Pick of the Month.
