I was fooling around with the Clear Image Zoom function on the Sony a7s3. I zoom in on a subject and inexplicably the camera automatically starts zooming out and it won't stop until it gets to 1.1. And it does the zooming out at the rate set under the rate setting meaning if I set it to a faster rate, the auto zoom out happens faster and vice-versa. Even trying to hold the zoom Tight button doesn't work as it just starts switching back and forth between 1.5 and 1.4 constantly. (My lens is the Sony G-master 24mm 1.4. set to AF, in-camera f-stop control and Click on)

 

Is there a ghost in my machine or am I doing something dumb?

    • AI sez: The CHIPFANCIER CFexpress Type A 4.0 memory card offers 1700MB/s read speeds and is VPG400 certified, making it suitable for 8K video and high-speed shooting. However, some users have reported limitations in frame rates with this card.  Don't know if that applies, but it sounds similar. Any chance on using/getting a different card? The A7 IV has a ridiculous buffer, it shouldn't slow down at all with a good card. 
    • Make sure camera and lens is updated to latest firmware. 
    • ISO 320 is the A7R5's second base ISO setting. You will find at ISO 320 you will get better results than even ISO 200. I normally take a set of shots at 1600, 3200 and 6400 ISO. I am taking 60 light frames and 10 dark frames. I don't do any adjustments to the files before stacking. I really need to get organised and do some bias frames now. Here is pretty much my first successful Milky Way shot from a few months ago. I was combatting a bit of ambient light and quite a lot of cloud but I'm pretty happy with this. It was shot using my Sigma 16-28 f2.8 which is better at astro than I had anticipated, at ISO 1600.
