[OM] Camera Rattle

I have noticed my Sonnie cameras rattle when I carry them. I determined that it 
comes from the IBIS not being powered on, so it just flops around in the 
camera. I suspect all IBIS cameras do. My GX9 also does.

I remember reading this article, and cracked IBIS mounts on A7 cameras.

I think most cameras with IBIS have the rattle. One more thing to fail I guess. 
What brought this to my attention was the recent class action suit on the A7iii 
shutter failures.

I guess it is best not to bang the camera around.
