Yes, really quiet, probably more so than the K-5 or K-5IIs.
The AF beep is different as well...  almost like a Blue Jay (for Brooksie).

 That's a very critical issue for the kind of shooting I usually do
 (theater and such) and could be decisive for a possible purchase on my
 side.
 Thanks a lot, Dario

 It's really quiet. My X-Pro1 is louder.

The loudness of the K-3 shutter is almost the same as K-5, but it sounds 
a bit different. Nothing metallic, nothing unpleasant, the tone is just 
a little bit higher.

Hi all, this is a question to anybody owning a K-5 (or K-5II/K-5IIs) and the
new K-3. How do new and older cameras compare about their shooting sound?

From those online videos floating around I have a bad feeling of a sharper

and more metallic click of the K-3 (sort of K20D-ish) as opposed to the
softer, well-damped sound of the K-5 series. Is that true or were they just

Excellent, I'm often surprised by the apparent loudness of the
shutters of the Nikon/Canon cameras that I find myself shooting
beside.
