Probably asked before. Your rangefinder camera; black or silver?

I like 'm black, like my coffee. 🙂

Mine is black, but the lens is chrome. At first I wanted it to be all black, but when I got the chrome summicron (couldn't find the black one for the price), now I am starting to like chrome more, but I think I will stick to my current setup, since the looks doesn't change anything about how the camera works

I voted chrome. Most of my RFs are chrome, but I do like my black M7 also.

Kiev chrome, XA black, Super Press 23 black, FFL RF chrome. I suppose I have slight preference towards black, but I really don't care if it does what I want.

Silver is really really beautiful, but black is more discret. Because I shoot in the street in low light, I vote for black. (camera and lenses)

I love chrome
I'm afraid of scratching black ... thought I can't afford black to begin with 🙄

 

[mathomas]

I have both black and silver bodies as well as lenses. It is important to be able to choose whichever is best color coordinated with the clothes I am wearing that day. If I am wearing a tuxedo and want to make a statement, I will always choose a silver body frequently with black lens accent. If I am dressed more casual, it is often a black body which the choice of black or silver lens as necessary to complete the overall look.

Bob,
I love your thinking!

Black is beautiful.

I prefer black Leica cameras. Lenses I like both black and silver, with a slight edge towards silver because they are milled out of brass.

 

[Out to Lunch]

Both is the best.

 

[porktaco]

The silver chrome bodies are more attractive, in my opinion.

Black, but only only if it is black paint over brass. Then chrome, but only if it is chromed brass (well, ok, Zinc too I suppose). Then black, but only if it is black chrome. Then black paint over aluminum. Then silver anodized aluminum. Then silver paint over aluminum.

How's that for an answer? 😀

My Bessa R and 35/2.5 Color Skopar are both black because that's what was available when I bought my camera. If I was buying it over again, I'd probably get the silver.

Gaffer Tape colour should be an option for.. those guys.
