It's probably ticking because "it's da bomb", as the young folks used to say ;-).

Are you focusing when this happens? Or no?

If I remember, I'll check if my copy does the same thing later today.

It may be just my hearing, but I sure don't hear any ticking when I zoom the lens.

Thanks Bill. It seems to affect only recent 2013 units. If yours came with Canon's newer "center pinch" lens cap, then yours is new and may have the ticking.
