Canon Gl2
I was just wondering if anyone has had any problems with the zoom switch on their gl2. Mine just started acting up out of the blue. Sometimes it doesn't want to work at all and other times it works, but its never working right,it seems to stick and I can't get the variable zoom anymore at all. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks a lot

RE: Canon Gl2
Thanks a lot for your post. I really appreciate it. We are quickly approaching the rut and I thought for sure that I was going to have to send my cam in to get fixed. I will give it a try within the next couple of days and let you know how it goes. Thanks again.
