The shutter sound is this bizarre whimper that just sounds broken the first few times you play with it. Mike Johnson's review of the camera awhile back mentioned this. Didn't feel overly bad, but the stuff I intend to do with the camera is a bit more contemplative than the Leica so even if it does come out a bit slower, I wouldn't care. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
