“Is it normal for the lens to rattle when slightly shaken? When looking through the front of the lens, it appears that the internals are somewhat loose. Is this normal if the lens is in the least zoomed position, e.g. 100mm?”

I have not noticed mine doing that but it could be the optical image stabilization system. Turn that off and see if it persists.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It's probably the IS working. It's not a "rattle" but a soft jiggle sound.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Its not normal on my lens. although I have had other canon lens do that. I would have it checked out just to be safe. Hope this helps
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is normal. This lens image stabilizer group is near front lens. When you turn off camera, you can see the image stabilizer group moving.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have never heard a rattle
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It's not a top of the line lens, if that's what you're asking. I don't have this lens, but I would expect to hear a little rattling. Why are you shaking your lenses?
