I guess it is like where is Waldo?
I found the 2 Nikon lenses or perhaps they were Sigma or Tamron.
:lol:

No, you just found out that a picture of big white lenses doesn't mean they are all made by Canon.

The picture is fantastic. It's called "humor".

Thank goodness... Which Nikon lenses are white? Just curious.

From the back, I guess... If these are all Nikon lenses, why in the world would any Nikon owner want to be mis-identified as a Canon shooter? :-)

I guess I shouldn't assume white means Canon. My mistake.

You can't judge a lens by it's color. White makes sense especially for ED (or L) telephotos in warm weather.

Agreed. White is apparently good for stadium lighting too. Those lights can get pretty intense---white just makes sense for this as well I'm sure. :-)

Typical press. See a story. Tell you what they want to.

I can't find where Nikon is selling "white" lenses. I see people are having them painted "white" though.

The Nikon lenses are "light gray". They're typically long tele's, 300, 400, 500mm, and hard to find.

Hmm... so all those Nikon photographers painted their lenses white? Again, somehow I have a hard time believing a Nikon owner would want to be misconstrued as a Canon fanboy.

Still curious if Nikon sells a white lens straight out of the factory?
