I'm not in the habit of shaking my lenses, but I gave my 85/1.8 AFD
a good shake, and there is something moving there. I wouldn't
worry about mine, and would suggest that you shoot with it until it
breaks, if it ever will. All of mine exhibit a bit of this, with the
exception of the 180 AF (older model, non-D).
