Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I recall the SM Le!cas were
even quieter.
Another example is the Hexar AF in 'silent' mode. I hear it because
I'm close to it but unless the subject is human with acute hearing or
an animal, they have no idea when a shot it made.
But it's all relative. The 'M' series is durn quiet.
