Little noise inside my new Minolta Z10 ?
Hello !
When I shake my new Minolta Z10 from back to front and front to back, I ear a little noise inside, just like a piece of plastic travelling inside (it seems to be near the viewfinder, but it's dificult to locate...) I borrough about that... Is it normal ? If somebody has the same camera, can he tell me ? Without this noise, I think the Z10 is a very good digital camera for a low price ! Thanks for your answer. -- Regards, Alf92 |

Robert I hope Robert is right: I know of one camera with a similar note in the book. It is related to the auto-rotation of images in the LCD viewer, if I'm not mistaken. -- Frank ess |

Here you are, under "Trouble-shooting"....
14: The camera will make sounds caused by internal mechanical movement when it is shaken. Answer: The sound arises when the lens moves. This is not a malfunction. I knew I had read it somewhere.
