I recently bought a new Fuji FinePix X30 , everything looked good , but when I turn it on , and I gave him the eye , I heard a gentle sound - buzzing , to use an electronic viewfinder ,

it is common for these cameras , normal?
 
Same thing for me. I also hear a slight but constant noise when the camera is on.

I also noticed that the right part of the camera is a little warm .....but probably this is normal and is caused by the battery.
 
Hi,

I suspect it is the optical image stabilisation that causes the buzzing. I don't her it when my eye is at the viewfinder, but if I listen at the front, then I do. My excuse is I'm old and deaf.

I have turned off the optical stabilization but the sound (very very slight......you have to put your ear near the camera if you want to hear) is always present.

I suspect that the OIS uses a suspended element so will require some form of motor/gyro even if just to lock the element in place when OIS is off. This is just a guess though so apply judicious amounts of salt with that opinion.

I have lenses from Fuji and had some from Sigma and they do this also. The stabilized element is positioned in-center but does not move to stabilize the image. Positioning the stabilized element requires electric power. So you hear a little noise.

I guess in the past, the early days of stabilization, the stabilized element was moved out of its regular position in order to provide optical stabilization, but the effectiveness of the stabilization process must be greater if the stabilized element is not centered mechanically by springs or other methods.
 
I do not mind the noise issuing image stabilization , but the noise bothers me , which is recorded on the video .. I think it is quite wrong for high-quality video with stereo sound

As someone who always shoots stills, I never thought of this! It's a problem@!
