The banding is not a big issue except at slow shutter speeds like under 
1/50th under some led or fluorescent lamps.  I frequently shoot in my den 
and haven?t had a problem.  If it becomes an issue the regular shutter is 
really quiet.  I?ve run into the issue of distortion when a subject is 
moving lateral to the film plane.  Silent shooting is basically a scan, so 
sometimes the image ?leans? if the movement and shutter speed are synced.
