Re: Isn't That Cute? The EOS Rebel SL2 in White & Silver

Looks nice. Alternate colours have always been a solid way of making a little more money off a body, as long as the production numbers are kept reasonable. Take a look at Fuji and how their silver bodies out-sell their black ones in every model. Hell of a lot of people don't want a big black box.

Hell, I'd have killed to have my 1DX painted white for the recent heatwave here. Using that in direct high sun got really uncomfortable, significantly because the body itself got too hot to grip fully. Wouldn't have been the case if it wasn't black; the off-white lens was fine.

Finally...a camera that will match my white lenses! ;D

Actually it's not the same shade of white. I use my 100-400 II with my white SL1 all the time.

Bummer. Well, in that case, I won't get an SL2. ;)

IMHO what is missing is an "Hello Kitty" edition, and a gold plated one, with diamond buttons.

This newer SL model will sell like pancakes with the younger female audience, specially in Asia.

Your suggestion is actually very business-savvy!

The Jackie Chan Edition can't be far behind.

An high-end aluminum (or other metal) finish may look good, especially on retro models, but it doesn't come cheap. Unluckily, this looks more the average "cheap" silver plastic, and couple with the cheap fake leather, make it look too much like an Hasselblad Lunar wannabe <G>. I could understand more if Canon made a limited edition with a true high-end finish, this maybe will sell well in some markets, but IMHO looks a bit ugly.

The white "stormtrooper edition" IMHO looks better (as long as you use it with the right lens), I would make a deal with Disney/Lucas and sell it with an R2D2 able to read cards and store images - it would sell like hotcakes to Star Wars fan... still I understand it can find some buyers who like to be "different". I could buy one myself, it looks toy-ish enough less people may take you seriously when you shoot... and sometimes that's a plus.

The white one is cool - literally ... at least in the sun. Great move and will fit the 4/70-200 in design and temperature after being exposed to the sun!
Maybe supporting less sensor noise under sunny condition and not to hot air compared to the black model. Hopefully available as body only in europe.
