I just noticed that sometimes when my phone is focusing on an object, it makes a slight sound like when a regular photo camera's lens makes a focusing sound. Is this normal? I've never heard a phone do this before... It sometimes happens when I'll place the phone about 3 inches away from an object, it'll focus on it, and then as soon as I'll lift it another 2 inches away, it will make the focusing sound...
 
I've heard it to varying degrees on other iPhones and it sounds like a little zip sound. It's silent on mine. I wouldn't say it's abnormal though.
