I handled my 1V and 28-135 IS lately due lack of battery power, the indicator said 1/2 power was left in the body. I decided to check which kind of batteries I had in my PB-E2. The camera was switched off. When I took BM-E2 out of PB-E2, the LCD display on top of the body went clear as I supposed and everything was fine. When I pushed BM-E2 back inside PB-E2, I heard a strange noise, the same noise like you hear when IS engages while shooting. I took battery magazine off again and pushed it back. Again the strange noise. Now I am pretty confused. Is there some kind of like warming mode in the IS system that keeps current in the IS unit that starts to work when you put any kind of like power to the body whether the camera is on or off? It doesn't seem to matter if the IS is on or off, the sound comes in both cases and it comes clearly from the lens, not from the body.
Can someone explain this, I'm pretty surprised. Is this maybe some kind of like built-in test that lens makes every time when you put new batteries or what...?
