byThom's article on Canon versus Nikon Lens Production
An article about canon versus nikon's lens production, since both canon and nikon announce when they hit milestones, this is chartable, as Thom as done:

As Thom suggests;
These two charts say everything: Canon's position in lenses is stronger than Nikon's. Not by a huge amount, but by enough to clearly identify the market leader, and to suggest that the market leader is not diminishing in strength.
