“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

Ya know - When I see a guy/gal using a white lens, I automatically give them MORE credit for having a clue about photography. It's not something I do on purpose. When I approach a person using one of the Whites, my conversation is substantially more serious than when they have a black lens. That's often not required, as I've met my share of WhiteLens folk who haven't the foggiest idea of 'why' they don't need a lens with IS while shooting sports.

Eh.. Cut him some slack - it's tough going through life with such a bitter disposition, knowing what you do for a living can be outdone easily by someone doing it as a hobby.

That image is missing a few white zooms.
"Posing from left to right are the Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L USM Lens, Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM Lens, Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L USM Lens and Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens."
He's also missing the 100-400 f/4.5-5.6L IS USM

Yeah the image I posted was only of Canon's fixed focal length lenses. That was the line up that had the most white bodies in it.That image is missing a few white zooms.

I'm definitely going to upgrade to a better digital at some point so I can take advantage of interchangeable lenses.
And just for the record, I "WILL" buy me a "white lense,"...

You high maintenance bitch, you!
(Hey, if I can be one for some cookware, you sure as hell can be for what... a $1000 lens? (Guessing off the top of my head).

The 70-200 I got used for $500; for the 300 I paid about $1100 new. My 'other' (just the lens I typically carry around on the camera) was about $1100 as well.You high maintenance bitch, you!
