The Merrill should really show off that lens at it... (show quote)
These 3 particular Art/EX lenses all have the floating lens innards that after the camera is turned on, do not rattle- at that point the lens is powered up and that floating element is ready to focus as the camera tells it to.
“Clunk, Thump” is quite accurate!

I have this & the Sigma 60mm f2.8 in SONY FE mount. They all rattle when the camera is not turned on, they are sharp, light weight and low cost, what else could I want. I am very happy with these Sigma lenses.

~ Just my personal opinion here..... I have the 19mm and 60mm ART versions and the 30mm in question here. The rattle is a known fact of the way they are built with a floating element. Also, the sharpness, contrast, and color rendition are something that keep one or more of these lenses a constant on my M43 Oly and Lumix bodies. A look around the Net will show how controversial these lenses are, and why they generally go for less $$. ...Now, I happen to also like longer lenses as my normal - as in a 50mm (a Nikkor S 1.4 at this moment) on my APSc Nikon bodies is normal for me. My 12-24mm zoom rarely sees action.
