[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 388181, member: 24753"] I think the lens has power to it even if the camera is off. I guess this because the LED on the camera body momentarily lights when a lens is locked into the mount. But it does not sound normal that it would make powered like sensations while everything is off. It may be that you turned the camera off before turning VR off. I know if you remove a lens with the VR switch on, it can sometimes rattle, so if removing the lens, the manual indicates the sequence should be turn VR off, turn camera off, and then remove lens. Since the manual does not say VR should be off unless removing the lens, then it makes sense it should not rattle while on the camera and camera off.... further evidence the lens is powered while the camera is off in some minor fashion. Leave the camera on for a while and see if it changes the behavior. This is a later post in this thread I quote here to fix/clarify what I just said. [/QUOTE]
