Hi - I noticed when visualy examining my RF 100-500 lens after an unfortunate drop, that as I look down the barrel I see what I think is a internal cylindrical baffle, and it wobbles slightly as I rortate the lens.. Before I send it to Canon for repair I would like to ask if this wobble of the "baffle" is normal and I never noticed it, or is it likely the result of the drop. Photographically the lense appears to be work fine. Can anyone confirm that this wobble is normal or not?

After watching a Lens Rentals video of a teardown of RF 100-400 lens, it turns out that the wobble I see is normal, it is the spring mounted lens internal Image Stabilization element that I am seeing move.
