Talk:Canon White Lens

Canon is not the only one with white lenses
Canon, Nikon, and Sony/Minolta all have white lenses in the telephoto range. Canon may be well known for the white lenses, even with the large market share Canon has, but by no means are they the only player in this. If anything, rename the topic for White lenses in general, explaining why certain lenses are white (the heat issue), and mention all of the manufacturers that take advantage of this. Also, on the white canon lenses, they do have that notable red stripe.

 * The article doesn't assert that only Canon has white-colored lenses. However, I don't think it's necessary to have a separate article for Canon's white lenses or white lenses in general. It seems pretty clear to me that his should be merged, as proposed. The L lens article already mentions that many longer L-lenses are white. As written, this article doesn't appear to have any significant information that isn't already present in the L article, and I don't see how much could be added that would differentiate it.
 * As the merge has been proposed since November and nobody has commented, I'm assuming very few people have even noticed this article exists, so I'm going to just create the redirect. --Fru1tbat 14:52, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
