Update info...
Went to fnac and tried brand new 18-135 stm and the new nano usm version.
The stm shows the same amount of rattle and wobble that the one I have.(mine shows a little more since it's used)
The nano usm is rock solid... different construction... different value too.
The guy from fnac show me 2 lens of the stm version and the two reveals the same behaviour.
So I have to concluded that the small wobble and rattle is ok and a not a problem... annoying at least but ok
Funny is that the 55-250 doesn't wobble... is an smaller barrel and the weights less... and maybe that's the reason for is solid construction
As long as you are comfortable with it then that is what is important.
