Hello All,
I just got the canon 70-200 f4 IS in the mail, which was ordered used from ebay from a top seller. I took all the precautions necessary to ensure that I wouldn't get a lemon, it was a buy it now item, and I paid a good price, not a bargain deal (not saying all bargain deals are crap).
The sample shots are nice as expected. I sold a heavier 70 200 2.8 to get this lighter f4 as I wanted the less weight and IS.
The only problem I have is when i give the lens a gentle sake, when not attached with the camera (or attached), I hear element moving inside. It is not bad, but I just hear something shifting here and there. It is not the case with my new 24 105, when I shake there is hardly any sound. Is it possibly the lens element coping up with the shake? Is it normal?
If you have the same lens, and if you gently shake it do you hear some noise from the lens?
Thank you for your help!
Cheers,
Kaustubh
