Joseph Winchester Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I have a great XL-2 setup that I am going to piece out in order to sell. This camera has worked flawlessly. Never had any issues with dropouts or mechanical problems, dead pixels, etc. Heads regularly cleaned. ONLY Sony premium tapes have been used in this camera. Fantastic camera, great colors, sharp. For sale: --- Canon XL2 with 20x lens, battery, strap, remote, sunshade, lens/body caps, users manual. $2000 *There was some rubbing on the viewfinder and on the aperture 'nub' from the Storm Case foam I kept the camera in. This caused the rubber coating to peel off of those parts. It is purely cosmetic. See photo #3. --- Chrosziel 4x4 matte box, lightweight support rails, follow focus, rotating filter holder, 4x4 glass Tiffen circular polarizer in soft case, 72-85mm step-up ring, 72mm UV filter, 16x9 matte, french flags, plate for XL2 (plates for mounting other cameras to the matte box can be purchased from 16x9 inc). $1600 --- Canon 16x manual servo lens. Clean, perfect glass. $800 Here's a shot of the above items all setup together (minus the dual battery holder and tripod of course). I will sell all of the above as a package for $4100 Also for sale: --- EWA Marine soft housing for Canon XL1 (XL2 *could* fit if you remove the shoulder support, although I haven't tried it). $350 *I only used this thing twice. Both times it was properly washed and dried. No leaks or tears present. Included: soft case, 2lb divers weight, weight holder, desiccant, various step-up rings Pickup in Austin, TX is preferred (or I'll meet you within a reasonable distance), but I will ship. Buyer pays actual shipping and insurance. Your choice of shipping methods (UPS, Fedex, etc). I prefer cash or cashiers check. Any personal checks will have to clear before shipping. Please email me or post here with any questions. Thanks! -Joseph Winchester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Genovese Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I'm trying to pull together some money for this package now. I do have a few questions: 1.) How many hours is on this camera? I know you've maintained it well. 2.) Why are you selling? I'm hoping to try and pull together enough money for it though...looks like a great package.

Joseph Winchester Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 (edited) Hi Taylor, thanks for your interest. 1) It's hard to estimate the hours in the camera but I would say no more than 40 (I have a rack of 50 tapes with footage from this camera, but alot of those tapes are only half-full). For commercial projects I've always rented either high-def equip or a film camera. This was for my personal work. I've never used it to capture, I have a small Canon cam for that. I've had it for about 3 1/2 years, but in that time I've shot more 16mm for myself than DV. 2) I'm only selling this because I need something smaller and High-def for a personal project I will be traveling around the world for. I love this camera and I hate to see it go. It is a wonderful cam. It's just a touch too big for what I need now. As I said in the last post, I will sell the whole package (XL2, 16x lens, Chrosziel matte box/FF) PLUS a custom-cut Storm iM2950 case SHIPPED to you (Con US) for $4100. I will UL a photo of the storm case on Wed morning. Thanks for your interest! Edited September 10, 2008 by Joseph Winchester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the next day or two, I am going to be going around to my parents/friends/anyone with money to try and scrounge together some loans from them, but I am very interested in the package. I will contact you via PM in the next couple days, if that's OK with you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
