I just bought a Canon 5D Mark II. The big surprise to me was that it's so much louder than my 5D or 40D!!! It's really kind of noisy (I'm not talking digital noise). Does anyone else have this experience? Maybe I just need to get used to it?
I just bought one too and was surprised by the noise as well. Of course, it's the size of the mirror that's at least partially responsible (full frame vs. smaller mirror for smaller sensor). At least that's what I think it is.
The quality of the image is MUCH improved for me, so I cannot complain.
