GP-VPT2BT

Dillion1951 — Mon, 16 Mar 2020 19:35:52 GMT

I have the above shooting grip and I am connecting it to my A7R iii but find there is no zoom function when I shoot in RAW. It will work on the hand control zoom button if I am in JPEG mode.

Any suggestions?

Hi Dillion1951,

I'm just going to try to find some answers for you. In the meantime, maybe someone else in the community might have some ideas.

Thanks,

Pascale

Hi Dillion,

Have you made sure the camera is up to date?

But thanks for the suggestion

Hi Dillion,

This is apparently a part of the design of the camera:

That is great, at least I now know I am not going mad. Thanks for the reply
