I'm an hobby photographer, but for any type of special event, I would want to hire a professional so I didn't have to deal with it; however, if you dictate that no other attendees can take pictures at my event I would find another photographer in a heartbeat.

Are you sure that the second D90 doesn't make the sound, are you positive its not just much softer than yours?

Serious? Or Joking? And can a good one be had for less than 10k?
