Q Why is white?

A It's a special lens used for surveillance telephoto photography in winter by the Armed Forces. They ordered a huge number and didn't need many so they sold them back to the company. A lot of these have been resold to photographers to take pictures at sports events. Watch a football game and you'll see a lot of Army issue lenses used on the sidelines. They are very expensive if you can find them because they use secret military technology and are specially painted white for winter camo use.
 
Here's a few I heard (or read):

Q: How far can you shoot with that camera?

Q: That's a big camera. How old is it?

Q: Ooh. That's some really nice photos. What kind of camera do you have?

A: I read an email from you the other day. Very well written indeed. What computer do you have?

Q: That's one of these cameras with aperture right?

Q: How many pixels do you have?

After a soccer game:

Q: Did you catch good pictures?

A: No, I´m here for having fun with the girlfriends of the players, the big fat camera is just for saving the money for the ticket!
