    I like the 70-200VR II one.

    http://cgi.ebay.ca/Nikon-Lens-AF-S-7...item3f005a777f

    It even comes with a "lens" pouch lol. So unnecessary.

    I saw that and was impressed, but now I'm not certain that's the actual mug... I think they used Nikon's 70-200 pics and photoshopped a hole in the front for the one pic, haha.

    I think you are probably right. I didn't look at all the pics before, but the last one is simply a pic of the actual lens.

    I wanna a 14-24 mug i bet that would be more popular than the 24-70 just because it's an amazing lens and would make all the canon guys jealous!

    Man.. I have to admit. The Canon mugs look better. Nikon lens never really had a signature look. The gold lettering? Who gives a shit?!? Looks like my crappy Tamron lens! Red rings and white lens bodies are where it's at. Sorry Nikon.
    You have a couple of photos that are great... you must be very good at photoshop!

    how about nikon white and black with gold lettering?

    This is just the 28-70, but they made a 70-200 too.


    I saw one dude at the camera store with one and I went

    The 300/4 is available in white also...I think some of the bigger tele's as well. Very rare though.

    IMO the Canon white lenses look really cheap, and from my understanding one of the reasons they are white is to help keep heat off of them because the fluorite they use is very sensitive. Not a big fan of the Nikon white lenses either, except that 28-70 looks incredible.

    I think the white was just brilliant marketing on someone's part...every time you see a canon shooter at a major sports event you know he's a canon shooter because of the lenses...but that's just my thoughts and I'm sure your reasoning is closer to the real reason

    I dunno Steve. Attach one white 24-70 to a white D3s and you have the Unicorn! Oh wait thats almost fairly realistic as people are so pissy over the lack of D3s bodies lol.

    That 24-70 sure does look nice though. I also think it's impossible to reason with why a camera manufacturer does anything anymore. They seem to become less and less predictable lol.
