i also prefer black

the reason pros use black is so that the camera will not show up in any reflections and will not reflect any light in the studio.

mine is also black
only my PnS cameras are silver

I'd go for the black as I dun like to be too flashy.

But if you think silver is cool, then go for it....

Another consideration point, most of the lenses are black.

There must be a reason why Nikon would come up with a silver body in the first place. There must be demand else there wun be this supply.

Sorry but I doubt any digital camera whether they are labelled limited editions or no, will be worth anything in a couple of years time.

nice one! KEKEKE! that would solve your problem!

I like to be discreet, so I went for black (the dark side?). Just my humble point of view.

The choice is yours! Buy something you like! And don't think too much. Coz u'll end up with not buying at all or regretting your choice!
