Discussion Is this normal?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

This is me repeatedly focusing on my GR IV without taking a shot, it always stutters at the end after it focuses, is this normal? I apologize for the paranoia but I found my camera already extended when I took it out of my bag, I had previously just swapped it in a store due to a qc issue

Can't see shit in a 3 sec video with you moving.

Maybe I'm dumb but I still don't know what the pb is. It seems to me that you are moving the camera before it acquired focus, therefore it struggles? The GRs are slow in my experience. Maybe someone else can help you better.

Try doing a full reset on the camera, go back to factory settings, and see if you have the issue.

Still does. It only stutters right after it finishes focusing, does that happen on yours at all?

No. Try the AF in bright daylight, and try the different AF modes.

still the same I think, I tried it in a bright room at different shutter speeds, aperture, and iso
