FZ1 Power off lens play

[Dan O''''Brien]

I just bought FZ1 - anxious to get started. One question.

My camera seems to have lens play/movement in the power off position.

When I rock the camera back and forth the lens clunks in the camera.

Does yours do that? Is it normal?

Dan,

ho yes this is absolutely normal as this lense technology use magnetic coupling to move the beast. power it on and you will see that the noise is gone. sony trv-20 has the same technology and same behavior.

enjoy your fz1.
