An interesting and unexpected outcome of posting the list of Canon Spring 2009 Rebates here is that my server log provides a sort of informal poll of what is popular among the items eligible for the rebate. (No, I cannot tell who clicks what – only what gets clicked and how many times…)

So far the EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS seems to be the most popular. I can see why, not only is it a very good and very useful lens, but it seems to be an object of desire for quite a few Canon shooters.

I was surprised to see that the second-most-clicked lens is the EF 200mm f/2 IS L lens. Given the price of this lens a lot of photographers must be doing quite well right now… or else everyone just wants to take a look and gawk at the price! (I know that I sure cannot afford that lens!)
