M9.. where is the quite shutter sound?

[bluepenguin]

Some people reported that M9 has a similar shutter sound as M8, not like M8.2.

Is this true?

Then M9 is truely FF upgrade version of M8, and not M8.2?

One thing I know for sure is that M9 doesn't have a sapphire glass.

The shutter in the M9 is great. Very quiet with the soft release and discrete mode activated.

IMO a Sapphire LCD protector is a waste of sapphire, and money. Just my $.02

I don't care much about sapphire anyway.

I had my M8 (not upgraded) today at an M9 showing -- M9 is clearly much quieter. They had an M8.2 there too and to be honest I thought the M8.2 and M9 sounded similar on a quick comparison.
