We bought this camera ( and others ) to use for conferences and live action recording of video and sound.  This is one of the best cameras on the maket and is almost exclusively used for ENG (Electronic News Gathering) purposes.  It's light and has 3 CCD imaging systems.  Very flexible from a programmable setting standpoint.  Includes camera body, Electronic Focus, Auto Stabilizing Lens, Optional Audio Interface Package ($350 value), High Capacity LiIon battery plus standard battery, battery charger and AC supply adapter.  Almost every video and audio function is programmable for maximum flexibility.  Optional aluminum carry case with partitions and extra storage pockets (a $280 value).  This camera has very low usage ( several minutes at the most) and is in Excellent condition.  Not even any fingerprints.  This is a great value for pro convention, news and weddings / conference recorders.All documentation is included as well as warranty card.  Purchased in early June, 2004 so it's one of Canon's newest models with all the latest features.  There are many write-ups and test documents just about anywhere you look.  This is, at least, one of the "standard" cameras if not "the standard" used in the video industry.  All options except older lens converter are included. Will use any "EF" lens made by Canon or third party suppliers.

This is an excellent piece of equipment that we'll never use as we've decided it's not need in our market. (We thought we'd get lots of use out of it and the other video cams we bought. This market does not support that need)
