My 70-300 OS lens rattles when I shake it! PDF Print E-mail

First, don't shake your lens - why would you even do that!

 Second - there's nothing wrong with it, it's the free-floating Optical Stabilisation mechanism. This has to move freely to be able to keep up with shake, so when the lens is not powered up, the element is free to move.

 It's still not advisable to make a habit of shaking your lens, though.
