I have recently bought a Canon 70-200mm f/4L IS USM. I found when taking photos, as soon as I half press the shutter, I can heard a minute continuous sound and it goes away as soon as I release the shutter. Upon further investigation, I found that the noise is not there if I turn off the IS. Can someone please help me/share their experience whether this is expected or should I ask for lens replacement?

Mine is also quite noisy.

Doesn't seem to affect operation.
