I have seen plenty of white color lenses for Canon bodies, which are like big, long (maybe 100/200/400mm?) and am wondering if there are any similar available for Nikon bodies?

Yes. You can recognize them by their hefty price tag Smile

The Nikon version of these lenses e.g. 70-200mm f/2.8, 300mm f,2.8, 400mm f/2.8...etc. are all of the same quality as the light colored Cannons but they are black in color. The one thing that remains the same is the price tag. For a mid range long lense, 300mm f/2.8, expect a price tag in the $5,000.00 range.
Oh wow that's expensive.
I think I will go ahead and create a separate post to see what people have to suggest as a replacement for these expensive lenses Smile
Something from the Tamron, Sigma families!

Sigma and Tamaron both have these lenses. I have the Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 for sports. You can find used versions of this lens on Ebay for anywhere from $700 to $1,500. Thats about as cheap as it gets. The $700 ones are older, without OS. My Sigma does not have OS. I shoot with a mono-pod and have no problems. Here is a quick sample.
