Hello Mika,

I have quite a few Canon telephotos including 100-400 mm ii, no metallic sound from any of them that I can recall while focusing. By the way, there is a new firmware for 100-400 mm ii on canon website, in case you have not updated yours. It was suggested that the new firmware prevented IS from random jumping (although you had mentioned based on your observation that the noise is not IS related). One never knows what other issues may have been addressed in firmware updates.
