As far as I'm concerned, there's only one color for a camera and that
is black. The only camera with chrome on it that worked for me was
the, now old, Hasselblad 500C series, though Leica's & Retinas look
nice in chrome, too.
The all-black camera exists for a reason. It's to keep the camera
from being visible in a reflection from a copy set-up.

I'm with you Mr. Bill. Another reason is to not attract attention like
bright shiny things do......
Waaaaay back when Olympus introduced the OM-1 series my dealer told me
that I had one of the first all black OM-1md bodies in the US. It was
special order and took a while to get. I was in Washington DC when I
got it and a couple Japanese students in the class saw it and said they
had never seen an all black OM-1! One of them had the chrome version.
