Why current silver DSLRs make people want to vomit
The Rebel and Rebel XT. Very rare Nikon D50s and Olympus E-500s.
What they all share is a stigma in cameras that in humans is akin to leprosy. Silvered plastic. It looks so awful and cheezy that only the lowest forms of life (bottom barrel pocketable P&Ss) wear it like a badge of honour. However, mark my words. If Canon or Nikon released a metal bodied DSLR with a silver finish like the old FE or AE-1s SLRs, it would cause a sensation. IMO, it could possibly outsell black.
