Advertisement Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 Hi michael180, Take a look here Audible noise on my Q2 Monochrom . I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
djcphoto Posted August 2, 2021 Share #2 Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) If you meant little 'clunk' sound, then yes, perfectly normal. I think it's the autofocus engaging or something. Edited August 2, 2021 by djcphoto Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yes, mine does this too, after the little clunk. I think it's normal, or at least I hope so! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grick Posted August 2, 2021 Share #5 Posted August 2, 2021 I had the same concern several months ago with my new Q2M. Search this: " Unusual Electronic Sounds from New Q2 Monochrom Lens". It's normal. There are other posts about this noise. Greg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowman Posted August 10, 2021 Share #8 Posted August 10, 2021 It could be the OIS initialising or something. When I have an OIS zoom lens it did a similar thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
charles tay Posted August 10, 2021 Share #9 Posted August 10, 2021 My Leica Q2 had that sound and i went to Customer Service to check and change camera leather color. When i got back my Leica Q2, no more sound when i use the Q2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkmc Posted September 1, 2021 Share #10 Posted September 1, 2021 It's the image stabilization. Turn that off, and the noise goes away. (I got my Q2M yesterday, turned on OIS because I have a tremor, and was curious about the noise, and immediately thought of the OIS, because I know this happens with some other cameras and lenses.) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
