Photographically it does not matter, so it seems to be a matter of getting what looks good to you. Collectors seem to want chrome, so that might be a consideration. I like th elook of black cameras and lenses, so I would get black. You seem to like both, so you must decide on your own. You can't go wrong photographically--both are marvelous.
