Canon GL1 Pro-sumer Video Camera for a great price!

This has been my workhorse camera. This is a great camera that I have used a lot in the last 3 months. It has some cosmetic flaws, it is missing the plastic piece that goes over the infrared, and the lock slide on the handle. It is still a very good camera for the money. Soon I will be listing another GL1 ($950) with low hours and an XL1($1450). I am selling because I also own a GL2 and XL2. I am ONLY asking $650 obo. If this does not sell quickly, I will post it on eBay.

Here is an example of how the camera shoots (keep in mind, it is YOUTUBE and the compression is really bad):
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1xcSuz_eEco&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1xcSuz_eEco&fmt=18" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

I also received recognition for this film, partially shot with this particular GL1. It will be airing at Founders Park on August 2nd, 2008:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/c9bqzhki_4g&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/c9bqzhki_4g&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Thanks!

I sold the camera pretty quick, sorry I forgot to post that.

I still have another very clean / low hours GL1 and an XL1. I don't have much for extra gear.
