My new G3 that I got is making a weird noise when it's in play/shooting mode not when it's in replay mode.
is it normal? it is sounds like a faint whirling sounds.

You probably have continuous focus on. If so, turn it off and the sounds will stop. The down-side of turning off continuous focus is that the LCD will freeze momentarily when the G3 is focusing.
