Purdy lens <drool>. It still looks kind of strange. I mean, the body and lens both wear metallic finish, but it's not the same finish. I wonder, can you change the finish on the body to match the lens. (I'd imagine no one would want to doctor up a Limited lens.)
I build scale models off and on, and apparently you can airbrush just about any type of enamel, paint or glaze on just about any compatible surface. So I have this idea in the back of my mind to customize a cheap body. I've got a K-mount Vivitar with a light leak that might serve as a guinea pig. Of course, I'd have to do some very good masking. We wouldn't want a shutter sealed with paint, would we? If anyone has any ideas or resources on redoing camera equipment, let me know.
