The quality of a camera's shutter sound probably isn't high on the list of what any photographer considers when looking to buy a new body, but Lensrentals has just published a tongue-in-cheek review/comparison of shutter sounds anyway.
President-elect Trump met with President Obama for the first time this week, and the short press conference afterward can be seen in the 3-minute video above. But politics aside, the video has people talking for a different reason: everyone's pointing out how loud and obnoxious the press photographers' DSLRs are.
When Fujifilm announced its latest wave of X-Series cameras earlier this year, the company stated that the big area they're focusing on is "speed". The new X20 and X100s feature extremely speedy autofocus, burst speed, and startup time. The 's' in X100s may officially stand for "speed," but it could just as well stand for "silent" or "stealth". Both cameras feature extremely silent shutters that won't attract attention while you're snapping away.
The video above by nycphotog2006 shows how silent the X20 is even while the leaf shutter is fluttering at a staggering 12fps.
