This is interesting. I just got back from Alaska. While there, I noticed that I got a few "jello"/distorted frames when shooting non or slowly moving wildlife using my A7RV. These were all handheld shots, relatively high shutter speeds, and using the high speed continuous frame rate which I rarely use on the A7RV. I had never seen this before and figured it was related to a sensor read speed issue possibly associated with the high frame rate setting.
I'm assuming the jello issues are with no mechanical shutter. If anything is moving subject or camera the mechanical shutter should be used. I guess that also applies to moving the camera quickly after you press the button because the camera is not done yet.

Yes, this is with electronic shutter. While I normally use the A7RV for landscape and only on occasion for moving subjects, this is the first time I've ever seen the jello issues with the A7RV. For wildlife/fast moving subjects I normally use my A1, but I was shooting with both cameras on this trip.

Always use mechanical shutter with this camera and never use H+ unless completely static images such as buildings or product photography.

The reason I electronic shutter with this camera is that I primarily use it for landscape. I have found with other Sony bodies that the mechanical shutter can cause slight vibrations that impact sharpness, especially with longer lenses, when doing bracket sequences for exposure or focus stacking. Also, if shooting in continuous drive, mechanical shutter has a longer black out than electronic shutter. When I recently got the jello/rolling shutter, I was using H, I've never used H+ with the A7RV. Thanks for info and suggestions!
