Well, actually Martin, they are ALL for taking photos!!!! 

But if you love the older M cameras like me, there aren't a lot of
reasonable alternates to chrome.  I wish my M3 and M4 were black paint, but
to get it would cost $500 or so per camera and a year in Japan -- neither of
which is an acceptable option for me.

Chrome... learn to love it or rob a bank!  ;-)
