Mine makes a noise when the cam is switched on while the lens cap is still in place, and normal AF operation is somewhat noisy. But no "tick, tick", which could be due to your camera settings I suppose.

Now I am sure the sound is produce by the aperture blades. As I push the "DoF preview" button I heard the same sound. The AF motor sound is very different. It occurs only in bright light perhaps because in bright light the live view needs stop down the aperture.
