The federal agency that I worked for had an extensive photo department and owned a mouth watering array of Nikon cameras. They often photographed well known speakers, including the POTUS, as well as awards, presentations, etc. About 2 years before I retired, they totally switched out to Canon due to the shutter noise of Nikon and the near silence of Canon. That said, I like the sound of the shutter on my D850.
I still shoot with a D700. A Workhorse! And has all the shutter grace of an armored tank on a cobblestone street in Mogadishu. But it works. Loudly.
