X-S10 Audible whirr sound while on

[BenIndigo]

I just got a new X-S10 and after about 4 days of use it started making an audible whirring sound when on. It's loud enough to hear at an arms length and makes too much sound for use with a hotshoe mounted mic. I've tried turning off the IBIS and autofocus and nothing seems to stop it. I am using the 16-80 predominantly but it also makes the sound with an old manual lens. The sound stops when in playback mode. I tried updating the firmware to the most recent which has not solved the issue.

Does anyone have any ideas or should I just exchange it?

 

Thanks,

Thar certainly doesn't sound right. I'd exchange it.

I would exchange it too.
