Id it's a threaded lens/filter, then try:
http://www.srbfilm.co.uk

If they don't have a "standard" size that accommodates your video
camera, they will make one for you.

any store that sells canon gear of any kind will be able to order it in.

Or you may be about to go direct to Canon..

I'm pretty sure you could have worked this one out though.. :-)



Anyone know where I can buy a new battery for my APPLE ipod?
I have no idea where to get accessories for my APPLE ipod
Who would sell such a thing?


Sorry...am taking the **** but I'm sure on reflection you'll agree it was a
pretty silly question...

Thanks Steve, don't personally think there is such a thing as a silly
question. Many brands don't sell direct to customers, no sign of this on
canon website (as XM1 is obsolete)...wait a minute, why am I justifying
your fairly snippy response to my query????

So you don't understand what is meant by "any store that sells canon
gear of any kind will be able to order it in." then ?

And people wonder why messages like yours get sharp replies...

Jerry, I'm not sure if you are a troll or just lack social skills, the
canon gear part was fine, hence my thanks to Steve. The sarcastic part
was unnecessary and immature, hence the latter part of my message.
