Im a GL-2 newbie. I just picked one up for $500 and would like advice on where to go for good GL-2 gossip/communication/advice. I hope I'm here already.</p> <p>Since it was used and it came with a Panasonic ME tape, I assume I should continue with the same brand and type (except all I can find are AME tapes...I hope that is okay).</p> <p>I live in Corvallis, Oregon--far away from production companies that might actually give videography seminars--so, I'm looking for good online tutorials. Any suggestions?</p> <p>Battery question--the one that came with the camera holds its charge for just a bit over an hour. I expect a good 2 hour battery to hold a charge for 1.5 (with display screen on). Are there recommended brands I ought to look for or just go for whatever fits the ol' vid-cam? (and, what brands should I stay away from) (can you say?)</p> <p>I'm filming my first wedding tomorrow (11-11-11 at 11:00am). Wish me luck!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/canon-gl-2-3#post-62234 Thu, 23 Sep 2010 17:02:35 +0000 newmovies 62234@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Still use my GL2s all the time.

They're going to lowball you since they're going to want to make a profit when they sell it.</p> <p>I honestly don't think your lenses are that valuable, but it's nice that you have a Pelican case, some extra batteries, and a light. You're wireless mics are probably useless now that the gov't has taken a lot of frequencies...i think.</p> <p>I think you should be happy with $1000 for your set up. Post Craig's List ad in other nearby cities for $1200 with the expectation of people trying to negotiate down to $1000. Someone will bite, just watch out for scams. </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/canon-gl-2-3#post-59917 Mon, 28 Jun 2010 07:44:55 +0000 tommy6429 59917@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> I have a Canon GL2 with a bunch of extras that I'm trying to sell but I haven't had any luck through ebay or Craigslist. I've had the camera and equipment for about a year and the camera is still in excellent condition as I've only put on maybe 10-12 hours on it.  I was asking for $1200-$1400 for it.  Do I need to lower my price point more?  I've got a Pelcan 1620 carrying case, Merkury optics titanium grade wide angle lens and a telephoto lens, lens filters, Sony wireless microphone system, and 3 extended life batteries, and a Canon camera mount light w/battery.   I've tried B&amp;H and I'm gonna lose money just shipping what I have to them, and they don't even want everything.  Does anyone know of any other possible solutions as to how or where I can sell my equipment?  Also, I live in Houston, TX if that helps.  </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/canon-gl-2-3#post-59482 Wed, 09 Jun 2010 09:43:40 +0000 EarlC 59482@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Brummie, just another astroturfer...so I bumped it off.

You might be able to send it to Canon for repair of the malfunctioning LCD and eyepiece, but it will probably cost more than the camera's worth. Though they still sell GL2's, Canon figures it's cheaper for you to just buy another cam, preferably one of their newest models. If you look around, you might find a used one cheap. Otherwise, buying a new one is your best bet if you wish to continue using that particular model of camera.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/canon-gl-2-3#post-59024 Tue, 25 May 2010 16:49:40 +0000 MrAnderson 59024@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I have a 7 year old GL-2 that can no longer capture.  The LCD and the eye piece looks like a green to magenta gradient. When I press record the magenta and green gradient is recorded.  When I put in a pre-recorded tape it looks completely normal.  </p> <p>If anyone has any ideas on what's wrong, or how I can fix it, if it can be fixed, please respond.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/sony-ccd-trv37-transfer-to-laptop#post-42531 Thu, 25 Dec 2008 11:08:05 +0000 javahog 42531@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hello...I am in a quandary.  I have a Sony Handycam Vision CCD-TRV37 camcorder that I've been recording with for about 9 years now.  The only interface it has is your typical two cable analog RCA output.  I would like to start editing these using a laptop.  Any recommendations on hardware and software to do this with?  I have seen the USB TV Tuners and I already have a TERK RF Modulator that I can hook this up to a USB Tuner, but is that enough or should I look for something better that comes bundles with software.  I would like to edit this and eventually transfer to DVD (laptop already has a built in DVD burner with).</p> <p>Thanks, JavaHog</p>
