Leathery on brown NX300 but less so on black version?

...that is the question! It could be psychological, meaning that the brown color (it's definitely not leather) may impart the look and feel of leather, but it isn't. So when you're looking at the black version, the mind doesn't decipher/recognize the color black as anything having to do with leather. I'm sure that both colors are the same material. Similar comments could be made for other brand cameras that offer both a brown and silver, along with a black and silver version camera.

Good point

Kind regards,
