GL2 - Audio didn't work	Can't Post

Anyone ever have this happen: During the last wedding (a 3 camera shoot), my GL2 didn't record any audio. I've noticed a coulpe of weird things in the last few months. During one clip, there is no audio for several seconds, and then the audio finally kicks in.

Another thing that has happened, is the built-in speaker had been a little flaky lately as well - not putting out any audio, and then a few days later, it works fine.

I have kept very good care of this camera, and it is only 1 1/2 years old. I have not shot with it in bad weather or conditions. Anyone have any ideas?

I think yor heads are dirty. Do you clean them regularly? That has made all the difference in the world for me. Same for my collegues who use SONY and JVC camcorders. Clean, Clean, Clean.
