Hi I am currently buying a GL2 off of eBay, but it's around $1500. Unfortunately, thats as cheap as Canon's pro cameras get. However, search on eBay for the pv-gs400. It is a panasonic 3ccd cam, and should be under $1000. It has most of the functions of the GL2, as well as native 16:9 chips. Even though its still a consumer camera for its size, it is really prosumer by its features. If I were you, Id get that. Pro quality for consumer price. Hope this helps!
P.S. Don't get the pv-gs500. Although it is an "upgrade", the pv-gs400 has more manual functions and is overall a better filmmaking camera than the 500, although 500 is a bit newer.

You can get cameras that are under $1000 or you can can get a professional camera. You can't get both. I know it isn't what you want to hear, but there are no professional cameras (of any brand) that are under $1000.
Canon's XL2 is a good quality camera for just under $3000 - and that isn't even a professional quality camera. It is considered prosumer (in between professional and consumer grade). Even used, the professional cameras will be well over $1500.

the t2i is the further perfect deal .. the reason being it truly is destiny evidence , and for you it truly is suitable for at present , also it has a minimum of 720p meaning it truly is sharper , and meaning extra perfect . the xl1 , good digital camera , fastened fluorite lens , even with the undeniable fact that the dampener is the minidv and common definition , firewire to computing device to edit , time ingesting enhancing as well . both have 25fps , i imagine from memory ther xl1 has as a lot as 33fps , yet your t2i could have a minimum of 60fps , and thoughts for further in the journey that they have got an identical settings as a 7d
