The question is : why would you want to shoot a judge?
Revenge?

Hi Phillipe,
I strongly suspect that Leica circa 2013 had about as much effect on
the writing of these rules as I effect the 2013 bottom line of Leica
itself. My strong suspicion is the rule, like most rules &
procedures, came about to fix a problem eg: cameras noisier than a
leaf shutter 4x5 Press Camera, a TLR, or the ubiquitous Press
Photographer with an M Rangefinder. In my mind that would be the
rise of the SLR in the Post WWII Era and the addittional mechanical
clunks and clatters they brought with them. Most of us have
experienced first hand how much louder an slr is than a rangefinder
and it goes double for the early all mechanical SLRs and their
unrefined mirror mechanisms. I'd say that some Judges got annoyed by
their church-quiet proceedings being disturbed with the echo of the
press photogs firing the shutters in their Nikon Fs. So, They got
together and wrote something to quiet things down and -like most
rules- has never been dropped or been adapted to the arrival of
todays 'silent' all electronic cameras.
I'd freely accept someone challenging my hypothoses with some on the
ground info and readily adjust to accomodate being proven wrong! Out
of curiousity alone I'd love to have more first hand info even if it
proves me 100% wrong, but I'm a bit of an odd duck. :)

VERY surprising - they must have paid a bunch as there so many
completely silent cameras around these days - the x10 is one of
them for instance.
