Hey Serg.
I have noticed this also, I think it’s the aperture though, because you can hear the little flicker.
I think it’s something either to do with the firmware or the lens you’re using.
When I use the 18-55mm kit lens it does this, but I think it’s because the maximum aperture varies with the focal length (IE you can get 5.6 maximum at 55mm, and 3.5 maximum at 18mm.)
This must mean there is some sort of mechanical relationship between the aperture and the focal length in this particular lens, which could cause flickery confusion when you zoom!
Best way to avoid this? Avoid zooming! I’m not a fan of zoom shots anyway.
Hope this helps,
Daniel

Are you shooting in Manual? I don’t believe it should occur if you are.
