The Canon WD-58 .7X (zoom-through) and the Sony .6X VCL-ES06
work well with the VX-2000/PD150. I would be surprised if
they did not work on the GL-1, but I have not tried them.
The ES06 needs a 58->52mm step-down ring, is not zoom-through,
and may vignette on the GL-1 (it doesn't on the VX-2000...).
