This pic was 'kop' from dpreview. But does it meant to be loose?

its alrite to be a little shaky as it acts as a screwdriver to drive older AFD lens.

It is normal for this pin to sway a bit so that it will adjust to engage with the lens mechanism

I see. Thanks! The focusing sound of the 18-135 must be so weird then. Maybe I'm not used to it since my 50mm is always on it

I don think 18-135 uses that focusing drive leh... its SWM.

The body's focusing motor is not in use with the 18-135, being a SWM lens.

I am aware. But it seems that when I'm AF-ing. The 18-135 doesnt give me such a crisp sound as the 50mm

becos it is SWM!!!! it suppose to be much quieter than normal screw based focusing lens
