So the change to mirrorless is complete (first R6 + RF 70-200 f2.8) and the sound is a bit unusual coming from the SLR.
I've searched a bit here (and also in various manuals) but haven't found anything about it, which is probably why it's normal:
When I focus on an object, the camera makes rattling sound and the AF points jump across the display. Not loud but audible.
Is this normal? Do you have this too?
It may not be the same thing, but I have read that the IBIS can make a noise in moving the sensor. There is a thread about it here
I am expecting to take delivery of a new R6 tomorrow, so I will check and write again.
It seems strange that the electronic shutter makes no noise, but this does!

The IBIS on the R5, makes a very small whirring sound, that is barely noticeable unless you put your ear to the camera. The lens AF seeking is the most noisy,depending on the lens, seconded by its IS ticking or whirring. The IBIS/IS noise lasts for about 12 secs after release of the activation button, much longer than the usual 2 or 3 secs with the old DSLRs. It is an unnecessary waste of battery power, but not particularly noisy
