You can blame Roger for this photo. He asked a simple question about lenses making grinding noise so I had to see if they did or didn't. This is the photo I snapped while investigating the question. By luck or happenstance the camera settings allowed me to capture this scene as is with no fiddling of the dials and extensive re-shoots. A little cropping later and I called it a day.

And, to answer his question: it's not normal for a lens to make a grinding noise. Or at least none of mine make any unnecessary noises. Though the operator has been known to utter moans, groans and curses, but so far no weeping noises, when using the camera. But I assume those are normal and can be discounted as having an adverse affect on the camera.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.
