That's where my Olympus E-20 comes in. Even though it's a DSLR (sort of, non-removable lens) it has a beam splitter, like the old Canon Pellix. You can turn off all the beeps, and the shutter sound can be turned off too.

It's great for situations like a concert at St Martin in the Fields in London, where a shutter going "klunk" would probably get me kicked out!! It also allows me to do some, shall we say, quiet photographs of places that cameras are generally frowned upon.

Beats using a blimp, which is what I'd need for the other SLR's. Especially the RB67, that's one LOUD shutter!

But if at all possible, I use the K10D because it gives me the best images.
