I'm comparing the number of Nikon and Canon cameras out there compared to
the number of, say, R8 and R9's. Hardly a small niche especially if they
allow exposure information to be passed along to the camera. I don't need
autofocus but I'd like auto diaphram control and exposure information to be
passed along. Some folks have already figured out how to do this so the
smart fellas in Solms shouldn't have that much trouble.
