Phantom HD shutter speeds upto 1/500,000 sec. Jees. It is quite interesting to see the Canon camera internals bend and flap about!

I wish they kept the sound. Must be the most horrible noise ever...
Just one of the big flaws in SLR.

Some like the vroom-vroom of engines. I like the mechanical 'ker-chuck' of an SLR. The imitated P&S sounds tho is the most horrible noise. I usually have them on silent!
Wow - thats got to lead to some serious wear and tear. It's impressive that they last so long.2000fps video of the 5D's mirror/shutter action.

If you hit the arrows at the top, there are more cameras. It's amazing how much the shutters flex and the mirrors bounce
Thinking about it my second-hand Pentax MX that I was using back in high school has probably only had a fraction of the actuations my newest dSLR has had.

Silences is golden, Golden ! (especially when making a movie while you do the shoot).
But I must admit the D1 is a little less noisy than some SLRs I have worked along with. Guess it was because it was an outdoors session.

The 40D and 50D doesn't exactly make a lot of noise either.

Sod quiet - the Canon 1DMkIII sounds like poetry!
Yes - poetry for some - but I like cameras that makes no noise at all. There is nothing erotic about SLR noises in the background of a fetish/porno movie.

+1.
When my brother got my 50D for me he was surprised by the kick of the motor-drive and shutter he thought something was wrong with it. I love it!
@Roux - Use the right tool (no pun intended) for the job!
