I received this lens today, used in very clean condition. produces sharp images and very nice colors but i noticed that when i move the lens it make a sound like something is loose. I checked my lumix 14-42mm lens and it made the same sound, is that normal?

This is quite normal. Indeed when I sold mine a few months ago I made sure I mentioned it in the listing. I believe it is related to the AF and as soon as the lens is mounted the and powered up the noise will stop. Not a problem just a characteristic of the lens.
