Equipment Poll #2 (5/28/08)

[swanny338]

Remake of the original post.

Allowed Multiple answers for those who legitimately shoot with two brands. I personally shoot 50-50 Canon and Hasselblad.

Still Sony. Last poll I had the A100, and now use the A700. Lenses are a mix of Sony, Minolta and KM.

Nikon is mostly made by Sony {Chips and assembly}.
Wonder what the real Sony {and Nikon} numbers are in equipment and sales ...
I have Mamiya 645AFD and now known as Phase One - its a real miss match these days ...
Did not put in Mayima or other ...

Still Olympus - probably will be for a while.

Woot! I'm the other Hasselblad user (I also shoot Canon and Hassy, although much more with the canon because I only use the Hassy for personal stuff).

Well, I thought the multiple choice would be cool for me, but there is no Mamiya checkbox, so it didn't matter anyway.

Need to add Holga to the list ;)

[johnastovall]

Needs Ricoh and a section on just Backs for MF shooters who have different backs.

[venchka]

No Graphic. No Konica without Minolta. I coulda used OTHER several times. No way to vote for the 3 generations of Canon gear I use.

agreed!

in the larger market, canon and nikon each get about 40-42%, so i think the results here are pretty interesting.

Both Canon and Nikon in this house... I'm a strange breed, eh?

Yep -- I have a Mamiya that comes out from time to time.

[Coogie]

The Mighty Nikon D40 plus 55-200mm VR, sigma 18-50 f/2.8 HSM, Sigma 10-20mm, bogen tripod, SB-600, case, and a bunch of little toys.

I am really surprised at the Canon/Nikon ratio on here. I thought it would be much more even with Nikon slightly ahead.

[Coogie]

Maybe all pros really do use canon like canon commercial and canon users who are really invested with lenses and other equipment and can't switch over say :) Seriously though every time I'm at a photo event (mostly with serious amateurs) I see slightly more Nikon straps....been seeing more of them popup on the sidelines too but I imagine it'll take them longer.
