Hi Mark,
when I first started travelling to F1 Motor Races in 1976 all the  
pros used Nikon. The F2 was the big thing. There was only one agency,  
with two photographers, shooting Canon. One guy used Leicas. In  
Istanbul last weekend there were probably 300 accredited professional  
photographers covering the event and the vast majority have Canon. Of  
the pros I am friendly with, and that is a lot, only John Townsend  
still shoots Nikon. He has shown me his D2X. The rest are all Canon,  
film or digital. It started a long time ago - well before digital.
Frank
