Canon is more popular among wildlife shooters because they are more affordable. Hopefully, Canon won't change their lens mount again now that everyone has invested in EOS lenses.I believe Canons edge in the market is only slight. 51% to Nikons 49% or something like that and this varies with the year depending on what each one puts out. I think Canon will do better for 2008, maybe. Canons seel slight better because they market better than Nikons (I explained this in the table earlier). One has to know how electronics are marketed to understand this. They are marketed on price and release dates, not necessarily features. A Camera released for a price of $899 is designed to compete for one going for $899, $999 or perhaps up to $1199. Not one for $1799.</blockquote>
