Hello everyone thanks for having me. I have used this forum before while researching lenses and such.Just yesterday I dropped my K3 with a very heavy Sigma 150 500 lens and tripod and now I hear something moving around inside the body. I was able to take pictures since the drop and they look fine. I removed the bottom cover/plate and see a steel plate which will move freely parallel to the sensor. Fun times!

Welcome to the forum.
Be aware that the sensor moves freely along with it's support mechanism in a cradle. That may be what you're seeing.
As always, with falls, spills and bashes, I recommend doing a through test to see if anything's not working.
Also consider that your camera may be covered under your house contents insurance and, if so, you may be able to make a claim to cover costs of repairs.
