    GL1 Lens on a XL2 ?

    Posted by Eric Goggin on January 13, 2010 at 10:27 pm

    I have a Canon Wide-Converter WD-58 I use to use on my GL1. I have an XL2 now, is this lens useless now? or is there an adapter?

    thanks

    The XL2 lens is considerably wider than the front of the GL2. I don’t believe anyone makes an adapter to mate the GL2 WA to the XL2. Even if they did there would probably be so much vignetting from the lens combo that the picture would be pretty much useless anyway.
