[QUOTE="Woodyg3, post: 534701, member: 24569"] I remember when Nikon offered cameras with either chrome or black trim parts (I'm sure I'm using incorrect terminology, I can't remember how they marketed it.) I insisted on all black because it just looked more "professional" to me. The white Canon lenses look like lab equipment or plumbing parts to me, not photographic equipment. :) I'm just kidding around, for those who might think I'm making fun of Canon or anyone's color preference. If Nikon made a 400mm f/5.6 like Canon's, I surely would have bought it a few years ago, even if it was yucky white. :) [/QUOTE]
