Error message

[Solomon]

Hi All,

 

I'm using my Sony a7iii with a variety of different zoom lenses. With all of them I'm getting the following error message just by rotating/adjusting the zoom ring:

 

"this operation or setting not available in focuse mode:" and under it the specific focuse mode I'm using (for example: "automatic focuse" or "single shoot auto focus" etc').

 

I've tried to reset my camera back to its factory settings assuming I've made a mistake with one of the settings. But, that didn't help.

 

My lense is on AF

My camera is on AF/AF-C/AF-A/Single shoot auto focus.

Drive Mode: single shooting

Focus Area: Wide

RAW format

 

 

I'll highly appreciate your help

Question to rule out simple user error: are you sure you're turning the zoom ring and not the focus ring?

Sure. I'm happening mainly when I'm zooming out
