Meanwhile I realised I shouldn't be using the parameter "manualfocusdrive" as that controls focus and not zoom.
However, I have tried to change the "eoszoom" parameter but it has no effect and I can't change it's value. Should I be able to control the zoom of the Canon G7 X Mark III? Thanks again for your help.
