Had the same with a Contax AX I bought on the auction site (sent it back
immediately) so not just IBIS, IBAF too!

Subject: [OM] Camera Rattle
I have noticed my Sonnie cameras rattle when I carry them. I determined that
it comes from the IBIS not being powered on, so it just flops around in the
camera. I suspect all IBIS cameras do. My GX9 also does.
I remember reading this article, and cracked IBIS mounts on A7 cameras.

I think most cameras with IBIS have the rattle. One more thing to fail I
guess. What brought this to my attention was the recent class action suit on
the A7iii shutter failures.

I guess it is best not to bang the camera around.
