Quote:The funny thing: many mirrorless cameras replaced a mirror slap with a more problematic shutter slap. The irony!
Yes, the shutter slap on the Sony NEX 5 is as loud as the mirror slap on my DSLRs.
Then again the electronic shutters on the V1 and J5 make the cameras absolutely silent.
One other thing about EVFs: The V1 gets its share of dust in the eyepiece and this can make the LCD stay off as the camera thinks that an eye is covering the EVF.
I drove 80km to the Nikon repair shop only to find out that with just canned air and brush over the eyepiece fixed the problem.
