The Canadian version of the lens weighed 625 grams, while the made in
Germany version weighs 560 grams.  These numbers are taken from various
brochures I have.  Also, when the German version was announced, the
reduction in weight was advertised as a new feature.

Also, AFAIK, there is only a black version.
