Safe bet: Any Canon loyalist you meet on the internet or on the street probably spent way more money than they were comfortable with on their camera. Same goes for any Nikon loyalist, any Pentax loyalist, etc.
See, when you spend a month's salary on a camera, you want to feel like you made the very best choice. You don't want to look stupid. And since you can't just go spend another month's salary on a rival camera system to be sure, that usually just means blind loyalty and pointless claims of superiority. My Canon focuses faster than your nikon, my nikon has better white balance than your canon, etc etc blah blah blah. God forbid that any camera that costs more than a grand is equally the best.
You see the same thing with guys who spend 4000 bucks on a road bike, or really in any hobby where someone spends way outside their budget.
