Would STM lens reduce noise with 60D body?

I know 60D doesn't have full time AF but with the AF engaged, would getting a decent STM lens actually solve that issue? Right now MF is really the only way unless I want jitterly noisy focus with non-STM.

Just wondering what my options are...

I'm assuming, based on the title of this thread, you meant to insert something in that sentence about the audible noise. Yes, having an STM lens will help reduce it the noise.

Except the 40mm f/2.8 STM.

If you want to reduce audio noise, its easier and cheaper to use the right microphone to record audio closer to the source. For general use, a shotgun microphone will record noise in front of the camera and reduce all camera and handling noise.
