Default Nikon Coolpix P80

I am in the market for a camera to take bowhunting with me, to get shots of the deer I don't shoot. I ran across the Nikon P80 and was really interested in the 18X zoom that it had and the reviews on the camera are good but none of them said anything about noise....
Any of you guys used this camera in the field???
Would this camera be quiet enough to take on my bowhunting excursions????
Any info that you guys have I am all open ears....All suggestions and comments welcome...

Hey Curtis,

I have been starting to check out some of the "advanced" point and shoot cameras. Give the Fuji FinePix S1000fd a look. I think you will like the specs. I played around with the camera the other day. It is hard to tell how quiet it is though when you are in the middle of best buy.
