For truly candid photography, it is hard to beat old twin lens reflex cameras, such as from Rollei, Mamiya, and/or Yashica. They are used at waist level, and are extremely quiet. People today seem to notice or react only to eye level cameras, not cameras used at waste level. Have the camera preset for focus and exposure and most of the time the subject never knows a picture has been taken.
