Cameras used by Smugmuggers

TheDuck

Not sure whether this might belong in another forum....but I'll ask here.

I just saw that Flickr generates interesting/entertaining graphs and counts of which cameras are used by their subscribers to post photos. (see http://www.flickr.com/cameras/canon/ for an example). It's sort of a poor man's view of market share by manufacturer and model, skewed of course by the profile of Flickr users.

Out of curiosity, does Smugmug produce similar statistics? I'd expect to see more high-end cameras in use by Smugmuggers compared with those in the Flickr community...but maybe not.

I guess after Canon's 1D-III announcement I'm trying to crystal ball gaze to see whether they're really feeling any pressure to deliver a 40D to better compete with Nikons D200 or a 5D-II just to make me happy.

Thanks, and be seeing you,
The Duck
