Some people do complain about the R7's shutter sound. I have no problem with it, but I can confirm that it is louder than the R6II. For most purposes, e-shutter, which can be completely silent, or accompanied by a beep (you set the volume), works really well. With certain kinds of indoor lighting, it can produce banding, but it's easy to check (just take a picture and review it on the screen or EVF). You can also get some rolling shutter distortion with certain types of movement (depending on both speed and angle of movement). Again, it's easy to tell when that's likely to happen, and switch to EFCS or full mechanical instead. For travel, I wouldn't be surprised if you can use e-shutter all the time.
