Does this camera make a "click" noise like an SLR?

There is a little bit of noise from the focal plane shutter. Though it's not as bad as with a conventional SLR's mirror flap.

I think that is just your auto focus. I get the same sounds from my Nikon D3100 in the video mode. But, only when it is focusing. These are primarily still picture cameras. Video is just a nice option and as yet not quite perfected yet, I guess. The more you use the video function, the better you will get at focusing and you can kinda work through it. I personally don't use it that much, but it's nice to have if you do need it.

It does not make any beeping sounds, only soft clicking sound like a shutter or mirror movement. It appears to be mechanical and a part of the process so I do not think it can be turned off. It is less noisy than average SLR camera shutter/mirror.

I also hear the noise of the engine when the Shutter is ready for shuting, but the noise level is small and it does not bother me. I wish you success!

If you're worried about someone outside the door hearing you push the button to photograph them, don't. The button push makes little to no noise at all. You will "feel" the click but there is no sound.

This is the standard camera. It does not have an IR sensor. You're thinking of the motion-activated camera, which does, and No it does not make a noise.

I purchased Dec 2011, my unit has a clicking, but it happens only when I move the camera around, like shaking it or more like when it's rocked side to side. It sounds like something is loose inside, like a small screw. It happens all the time, even when the camera is turned off. If I didn't know of the issue, I may not have really noticed, so, not a huge issue for me. Camera works great nonetheless and I still love picture and video results.

Yes, they do. (Bought mine on eBay last week though...) According to another site, a forum said it may be at least six months before they'd fix the issue, but without guarantee... Your luck's been pressed. It's just a loose part inside under the shutter button, at least that's where the shaking 'click' seemed to my ears.

Yes there is a click sound. I use this heater in my bath before and during my early morning shower. It suits my purpose perfectly.

Yes it does. Its not very loud BUT since the DSLR is so close I wouldnt recommend if audio is EXTREMELY important.

It does have a green light on the side that flashes when recording. I covered mine with electrical tape. As for the noises, no I have never heard it make any noises when the battery is low.

If the lens is mounted and the camera is "On" then you may be hearing the aperture. This is normal. If the lens isn't mounted and you can hear a clunk if you move it this would not be normal.

I believe the clicking you hear as you pan the camera is due to change from day to night mode. The sound you hear in not from the motor.

It makes a click-clack sound that is not loud. For details, see my answer to the question: "Does this make noise?..."

There is a click sound when the camera changes from day to night vision or vise versa.

Yes, it does. I've contacted Sigma customer support regarding this issues and they assured that it's a "by-design" behavior and there is nothing to worry about. It's the OS lens elements causing the rattle noise. You can see that the noise stops when you engage OS (by half pressing shutter release). I also checked out a few other similar lenses at a local camera store and they all had the same noise. Mine is for Nikon though.
