Splash Pokemon Posted July 7, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 7, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) When you shaking the camera, it sounds like a small piece of paper/metal clicking around. Is this just me or the noise is from IS mechanics inside? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 7, 2015 Posted July 7, 2015 Hi Splash Pokemon, Take a look here Q shaking make noise. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
farnz Posted July 7, 2015 Share #2 Posted July 7, 2015 I think it's the lens's aperture blades moving as you shake the camera, which is nothing to worry about. They have to be able to move past each other so they might rattle when the camera is shaken. Pete. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

farnz Posted July 7, 2015 Share #4 Posted July 7, 2015 Or the orientation sensor? Does the Q have an accelerometer, Jaap? Pete. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosgavina Posted July 8, 2015 Share #5 Posted July 8, 2015 Mine does that noise only when turned off, when turned on stops making the noise. Image Stabiliser perhaps? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alee Posted July 8, 2015 Share #6 Posted July 8, 2015 All my IS cameras have a rattle to them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightfall Posted July 8, 2015 Share #7 Posted July 8, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) It is the freely floating front lens element when the camera was off. Part of OIS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

spylaw4 Posted July 8, 2015 Share #9 Posted July 8, 2015 Mine certainly rattles when switched off. Stops when on. Checked with the RDC demo one - same. So I've stopped worrying! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
