In a professional setting, I've seen maybe two ever: one in a fashion show and another in a movie premiere. In a casual setting, that's a different story. I can vouch that talking to someone who uses a Pentax in a digital sense does give quite a bit of camaraderie, although I do also meet quite a few people who feel nostalgic seeing the brand used like it is.
To be fair, it's been the same way with Sony, which is a shame since I respect the Sony/Minolta brand quite a bit. I can definitely vouch that I've seen far less Olympus models on the field, though. Out of the three, I can probably say I see more Sonys than any of the other three.
I think people don't really mind what brand you choose. Some get curious about image quality and consider it acceptable with my setup (as they take their 7-10fps bursts and I take 2fps). I've only met one person who was a brand snob and she was green to the gills.
Of course, I stick out no matter what since I use a modded bracket flash with a hotshoe and a honking big reflector, so sticking out is something I'm used to anyway.
EDIT: I should add I also was reading one manga and saw this, which gave me a snicker:
