Q. How much noise does the E-P1 make?
A. Although not as quiet as a typical compact camera with a leaf shutter, the E-P1 is commendably quiet, and much more so than any DSLR. Although I haven't compared them side by side, I'd even stick my neck out and suggest that the E-P1 is quieter than a Panasonic G1, which has a slight high pitched twang it its shutter mechanism action. The E-P1's shutter is well muffled by comparison. Both the 17mm and 41-42mm m.Zuiko Digital lenses are much quieter than comparable Four Thirds lenses. So overall, the E-P1 scores well in the quietness category.
Cheers!
