They (510s) vibrate/make a razor like noise if you power them down with
the IS turned on. E-3 does it too, but due to the mass of that body
it's less evident. I've gotten in the habit of turning the IS off
before powering mine down.
Haven't heard/read anything anywhere that indicates it's a potential
problem for the cameras.

I'm wondering why it has a clattering buzz on power down vs shutting it
off selectively. Seems strange.
