You are of course assuming that they agree that the Leica M8 etc is Pro gear. They may or may not. However, Aperture is just as likely (or even more likely) to support consumer Canon & Nikon cameras simply because the market is even larger. If only 1% of Canon 400D/XTi users buy Aperture, it's still probably a bigger market than if 20% of M8 users bought it. All guesses on my part.... I don't have actual figures
