After all the discussion so far I can't believe you've said that!
Seems to me you've already decided and just keep hammering away at these
questions until someone agrees with your original and erroneous premise.
Seems to me you mostly want to look good to the other amateur folk
because it sure as well won't impress the pros. For the same money as an
XL2 you can have an FX1 with a beach box XLR adapter. Now that really
does blow the XL2 out of the water!
I guess you'd not care for the little A1 at half the XL2 price because
it's so low profile nobody would realise that your shooting full 1080i
or full 540 resolution DV or DVCAM in either 4x3 or 16x9.
I'll bow out of this strand now but just for the record; Standard
Definition, with or without ersatz 16x9 is obsolete, at that price range
only HDV types are worth considering. But if filming with an awkward
banana with atrocious handling ergonomics and dodgy back focus lock
(rack focus lock on your side of the pond) ticks your boxes, go right
ahead and joy be with you.
