Leaf shutter vs Electronic shutter?

If you turn off the shutter sound the leaf shutter is quieter than the in focus peep at it's lowermost setting and that can be turned off also. Tool menu 1, 4th item down, (sound effects) 2nd page

Paris, way too many things to photograph and too little time. We were on the last stop of a 3 week trip to Europe. My kit consisted of my Canon S100 and the Q7 with the 06 attached for the reach if needed. I did bring the 01 02 and 03 but they got little use, K30 & Kr stayed home. This resulted with most of my shots taken with the Canon. When I got to Paris I decided to put some mileage on the Q7 and changed to the 02. We did get to see most of the sights but being early Sept the crowds were still a problem. All but one of the following shots were with the Q7 & 02. After returning and processing shots I found little if any difference in IQ between the 2 cameras. Check my Flickr for the rest of the trip. If I had taken only one camera it would have been the Q7 with 02 and 06 but it was easier not to be changing lenses all the time. I am glad I didn't take the DSLR's the 2 small cameras worked out great.

Thanks again Abel I have been running the K50 firmware on my K30 for 9 months with no problems. Today I got my new DA 55-300 PLM and it works perfectly. I mostly use my K30 for wildlife so I may not care to much if the aperture block dies now that I have the PLM lens. I do have 4 other DA lenses so I really hope it doesn't die but at least it will not be useless.
