since bkk is known as a big film, commercial, and tv production hub, there certainly must be a store I can purchase a canon gl2 or comparable 3ccd hd video camera (one with a hd would be awesome too). I have googled my fingers to death and do not find any.

Any advice is appreciated.

thanks all!

We just bought a semi-pro camera last week after alot of searching around. Originally, we were going to buy the GL2 but couldn't find it anywhere in Bangkok. After searching for comparable cameras we found that the Panasonic AG-DVX 102BEN had better reviews and recomendations (this is the same camera as the DVX 100B, but solely for the Asian market). We bought it from 'Deung' in Lad Phrao - they only sell semi-pro/pro equipment and were very helpful. PM me if you need some more information!

There looks to be a pro shop in fortune, up where the end escalators are, either canon or sanyo. Dont know how 'pro' though.
