I don't see anything either, just someone else that didn't like it. Have you tried muting it before you take the photo?

D'oh! I saw one guy give it a review that said he'd give it 5 stars if he could turn the shutter sound off.

-KungFuKitten (440Q / 3412A) Tue Mar 25, 2008 7:14pm

With the camera open go to More > Shutter Sound

I did that... under that screen you can select one of four shutter sounds.... not one of them is silent.

-constantskeptic (11Q / 39A) Tue Mar 25, 2008 7:12pm

This is common with cell phones. My Samsung is the same way; you can't turn off the shutter sound.

Some studies have shown that drinking coffee can increase the risk of heart attacks, while other studies have shown that drinking large amounts of coffee decreases the risk of diabetes.

There are nutritional advisers who claim that coffee makes us age faster, wears out our adrenal glands, and causes all sorts of untold damage to our cells

-modcom (41Q / 7655A) Wed Mar 19, 2008 1:21pm

Other researchers claim that coffee, especially if it-s freshly roasted and ground, is full of antioxidants, and therefore good for us. Most doctors say that drinking one or two cups of coffee a day is probably not harmful. And of course there are others

Sodium will make your body tissue retein water. MSG is a sodium product, so too much will bloat you.
