tried my serial number on the link in the article found my photos, so very interesting, will keep it book marked

however the most recent photo it found was from jan 2011.
so if the camera was stolen in recently, chances may be slim

found my old 50D which i sold to a mate, but no photos taken by him ( he is useless though and took 6 months to get a lens for it hahaha )

no finds my partners 60D though, shes had it for a while now.

looks like the more pictures put on the net, the more chance you have of it being found?

It also depends on how much Meta data has been striped from the image it self thru post processing :)
