Nikon, Pentax, Fuji and others - have now turned their attentions to satisfying their female users with hot pink cameras ... do you think this'll sell?

I am a gal under 65 and I would NOT buy a pink camera - but alas, I am odd and like everything electronic of mine to be black - even my iPhone.

Nothin' new! Gold plated, exotic leather, two-toned! If you have the extra bucks, WHY NOT!
Get a great camera and make a fashion statement.

Only if I was a lady! But, obviously they are marketing to female photographers. Maybe long overdue?

I'm not a fan of pink, but I certainly wouldn't mind some other colored camera. Visually, black cameras are kind of boring.

My wife and I were in NYC at my tx doctors. Decided to see some sights. No camera! Stopped at Adorama. Purchased a
Reddish/Pink Samsung P&S They put a charge on the battery while went to Starbucks. Now that camera is always in the center console. Pretty little camera.

The color makes them look like a toy to appeal to kids. Wouldn't buy one.

I know it wouldn't make a difference in skill, but do think anyone with a pink dslr would be taking seriously?
