Darren · 3rd November 2003

Updating poll on # of DSLR users in ClubSNAP. Just for informational purposes.

Others = any other DSLRs discontinued or not in mainstream eg Contax N Digital.

ST1100 · 3rd November 2003

What about those with more than 1 dSLR? i think got a few around, from the previous list.

Astin · 3rd November 2003

Why is there a * next to Nikon D100?

Because you voted D100?

Suggest add an option for Olympus E10/E20/E1... considered mainstream right?

Good point - will add in Olympus E1.

Not sure about Olympus E10/E20 - my definition of DSLRs are that they have interchangeable lenses.

yah, agree with Darren. technically, the E10/20 series are classified as "ZLRs" (zoom lens reflex)

Jed · 5th November 2003

Actually, technically and by definition, you're both wrong.

An SLR is a single lens reflex camera, and the E10 and E20 are both single lens reflex cameras.

They are also both digital, so there is absolutely no reason whatsoever why they don't qualify as DSLRs.

In theory, you could only omit them if your poll was for Digital SLRs that accepted interchangeable lenses. Which it isn't.

MaGixShOe · 5th November 2003

hmm... it doesnt have a mirror

Darren · 5th November 2003

In the interest of completeness and since I did not specify lens-interchangeable criteria in my initial poll, have added the E10/E20 into the mix.

It doesn't?

Darren, hey I'm not asking you to include them, just that Larry was being "technical" so I was just being "technical" in return.

Eh Larry? *nudge*

hehheh... actually it wasn't my term. it was something coined by Olympus themselves to differentiate the E10/20 from SLRs...

from Steve's Digicams...
"ZLR - Zoom Lens Reflex, a term coined by Olympus to describe their fixed mount lens SLR type cameras. An SLR camera has interchangeable lenses, a ZLR has a non-removeable zoom lens."

eh Jed? *nudge nudge wink wink*

Firstly, that's Steve's Digicams, not Olympus.

Secondly, see the part I've highlighted in bold. It's still an SLR.

You're right .. couldn't vote more than once. Mod .. how???

mpenza · 5th December 2003

300D garnered almost 20% of the votes within 2.5 months of release.... wonder how well the D70 will do next year.

kiama · 25th December 2003

Canon still in the lead

Spectrum · 11th February 2004

This also means that there're quite a number of rich & capable Clubsnappers out there.
