Yes
I just recently pick up a Panasonic 14-45mm lens of ebay, but i think it might have a problem with the lens image stabilization motor.

What happening is on my G5 i can clearly hear the motor inside of the 14-45mm working,plus also a kinda high pitch squeaking coming from it aswell.
now compared to the 14-42mm lens i originally got with the G5 that lens is near silent you have to put the lens upto your ear to hear the motor inside.

So those with the 14-45mm is your lens silent, if so then i'll return it back to the seller.
 
Just tried mine and it doesn't make any noticable sound.
 
Thanks Stumpy,back to the seller it goes then.
