Tony, people say the only difference is colour and B&H simply
got a good discount on a large purchase. Never having the
opportunity to handle the black one, I wonder if it's inner tube has
the same soldered cardboard appearance as does my silver sample.
That said, it handles well and optically is better than its
detractors usually say.
