What you need is a camera "blimp", a covering that dampens the noise coming from the camera. You can get it from any camera store that caters to professionals, especially news photographers (who use them in courtroom situations.)

Hi y'all-
I have an opportunity to take pictures at church again, but this time it will be of people praying. Because of that, I'd like to be as unobtrusive as possible. I have some Fuji Superia 1600 film, so I won't need a flash, and I'll probably use the 135mm f2.8 so I can be on the other side of the room. But that still leaves the camera body, with all it's shutter, and mirror, and stopdown noises. I tried wrapping the body with some bubble wrap, and some closed cell foam, but it didn't seem to cut down too much on the noise. I seem to remember a thread about doing something to quiet the shutter noises, but couldn't find it now that I have a need. Does anyone remember, or know where I could look it up?

Thanks, Steve Goss, Dallas Tx usa
