    I would avoid red if I wanted discretion. Red attracts more than just bulls.

    Re: Red Bellow vs Black Bellow

    I made my new Century bellows from black material. Originally, I think it may have been more subtle red/maroon, rather than the bright red offered today for replacement bellows.

    I have this on good authority:
    red bellows are chick magnets.
    So bellow accordingly.

    Or accordion-ly.

    Or you could start with the Ferrari-red dark cloth from Intrepid and if that suits well, progress to a red bellow. You will certainly have more chance to get distracted by people coming to ask you questions whether this is a camera.

    Red might also be an advantage if you photograph landscapes during hunting season. I would also avoid wearing anything that was brown. And definitely, no fur coats.

    Ha, so many great answers. You guys made me lough. Thanks a lot!
    So I ordered my red one just some hours ago.
    I will post a picture of it after it is mounted. Guess that will take about a month. So there are no bulls here
    Beside my red company color and that I am wearing often red stuff, it will also look much better in my videos
