Just wondering here (obviously a slow day...).... why.... aren't MOST camera
bodies AND lenses, NO MATTER THE SIZE, ALL-white, as opposed to the
traditional black? I can see a good rationale for black INSIDE the body and
any lens, to absorb any extraneous light that might find its way inside, but
why black OUTSIDE, as well? Why not white, to keep the body (and hence, the
film inside) & lens elements, helicoid grease, etc. cool?
Tradition... why are most computers biege? because that's what sells the
best.
