Focus Issues

[DMH]

Hey all, I'm using ProCam from Android to capture videos, but I'm finding that during the video the subject, Saturn in this instance comes into focus and looks great, then loses focus and looks like a bright white blob. I've set it to infinity focus.

Wonder if anyone has had similar experiences?

It focuses correctly when I tap the object but then loses it!

Now it's not the middle of the night, I guess the answer is to go manual!

I've no experience with Procam, but have noticed similar with Saturn on the native phone app and Camera FV-5. I may be wrong but it looks to coincide with seeing getting a bit "bouncy" and confusing the camera focus. Still looking for a solution to that one...
