Can someone explain why someone like canon who is known for it's lenses
doesn't make a 35 mm lenses for the XL. Or how come panasonic doesn't make their camera with it. Would it be way to expensive. I mean they know a lot of people use these cameras to shoot movies and videos with them.

The image sensor is not big enough for a 35 mm lens. Also, price of 35 mm lenses is way over the price of any mini DV camera.
