Quick Overview
Optional Accessories
CB-900 Car Battery Adapter
Power your camera, or recharge battery packs on
the move. The car battery adapter plugs into your
car’s cigarette lighter socket and runs off a
12–24 V DC negative ground battery.
When you attach two battery packs to the CH-910 Dual Battery Charger/Holder, the maximum recording time will be
almost doubled.

BP-915 1 hr. 35 min.
BP-930 3 hrs. 10 min.

These figures show how long you can view playback with the LCD, after attaching a fully-charged battery pack.

WD-58 Wide-converter
This lens decreases focal length by a factor of 0.7,
giving you a wide perspective for indoor shots or
panoramic views.
There may be some vignetting at the extreme
wide angle position.
FR-100 Floppy Disk Still Image Recorder
Connects to the GL1 or any Canon camcorder with
a DV terminal and records still images onto a
floppy disk in one of three resolution choices.
Images from the disk can then be transferred to a
computer. Available: Winter 1999
Battery Packs
Extra batteries for use with the GL1.
When you use the optional BP-930R (without the

before the battery is exhausted (see p. 83).
