Canon PowerShot SX740 HS error setting zoom
Describe the bug Using Canon PowerShot SX740 HS I am not able to set the zoom using gphoto2 with the terminal (Linux, Raspian OS).
Below is the info about the camera and the error.
Model Port
Canon PowerShot SX740 HS usb:001,003
libgphoto2 and gphoto2 version gphoto2 2.5.27.1 gcc, popt(m), exif, no cdk, no aa, jpeg, no readline libgphoto2 2.5.27.1 standard camlibs (SKIPPING lumix), gcc, ltdl, EXIF libgphoto2_port 0.12.0 iolibs: disk ptpip serial usb1 usbdiskdirect usbscsi, gcc, ltdl, EXIF, USB, serial without locking
To Reproduce gphoto2 --set-config zoom=50
*** Error ***
The property 'Zoom' / 0xd055 was not set (0x2019: PTP Device Busy).
*** Error ***
Failed to set new configuration value 50 for configuration entry zoom.
*** Error (-110: 'I/O in progress') ***
Debug flag file my-logfile.txt
Further info I noticed that, using the command "gphoto2 --list-all-config", the zoom is of the type RADIO, could it be the problem?
/main/capturesettings/zoom Label: Zoom Readonly: 0 Type: RADIO Current: 0 Choice: 0 127 END
Thank you in advance!
i put in a change that you can send values between 0 and 1000 or so... can you try curent libgpoto2 git and send values between 0 and 255 or so? cant test myself sadly, as my sx720hs does not do that
Running gphoto2 --set-config zoom=50 --debug --debug-logfile=debug.log the problem is still there. Also adding --capture-image the problem remains. debug.log
However, it seems it works correctly using the Python bindings python-gphoto2! :)
hmm, can you try
gphoto2 --capture-preview --set-config zoom=50 --capture-preview or so and see if that works? (it might need liveview enabled)
Unfortunately, It still doesn't work using gphoto2 --capture-preview --set-config zoom=50 --capture-preview --debug --debug-logfile=debug.log.

HI @msmeissn , hope you are doing well and thanks for everything !
I am working on altering Zoom when USB tethering of canon G7 max mark iii and this doesn't work for g7mark iii as well. I get the exact same error as @gabrielesartor following the steps he is doing.
Please let me know how to set 0xd055
