The shutter sound wasn't the issue with the A7 for me. The overall awkwardness and feel of the camera bugged me, and the viewfinder was only "pretty good", not great like the Olympus E-M1. I just didn't like it all that much.Godfrey, I'm happy with my SonyA7R - as long as I use Sony lenses - sure I have a Sony to M adaptor- but I get the same file from M9 using 35/50/70/90 lenses and worse files when using 28/21...don't get all the angst about shutter this and that problems with the Sony tbh - but then again anyone who shoots tech cameras or MF clunkers is probably used to a loud shutter ...
well you are one who says that less problems with wides on 240 than M9 ..so that is a different input
Regarding the bolded bit above, I have less problems with the wide lenses I have used (Color Skopar 21, 28, 35, Ultron 28/2, Nikkor 18/3.5 AI-S, Leica Summilux 35 v2) on the M-P than I had using the same lenses on the M9. That's all I've got and had to work with, I can't answer for any others. The Elmar-M 24 in particular I didn't have when I had the M9, but it performs beautifully on the M-P; I've since sold the Color Skopar 21 and Ultron 28.
