. The ker-chunk is probably VR turning off. As for shutter speed, sounds like you are in (P) program mode. Or (A) Aperture mode and SS is changing when you point at a differently lighted scene.
Exactly my thoughts also.

What happens when you raise the camera back up to the position that you were shooting the moon it did it switch back or did it change and adjust to the new light setting. Just curious that’s what I would do.
Bruce.
Bruce.
No, stays at the speed it changed to. For example, I set it at 1/500, it'll change to 1/2000.

Didn't think of that. The VR most like WAS left on. Definitely NOT in "P", "A" or any other mode. Everything is totally in Manual.

If the camera is in Manual and auto ISO it only changes the ISO and not the shutter speed.

NOTHING was in Auto. I definitely turned Auto ISO off.

I said even if it's in Auto ISO the shutter speed doesn't change. I am not sure if auto bracketing can change shutter speed in manual mode as I never use it. Otherwise in M shutter speed doesn't change. So unless you accidently touched something the camera is defective I would say.

There are only three factors you can control on that camera. Shutter speed, aperture, ISO. If auto ISO is turned off, you must be in aperture mode or auto mode or program mode for the shutter speed to change when the camera points to a brighter or darker area. It is always possible that your wheel is loose and that A is very close to M you could possibly be encroaching on the A instead of M for Manuel.

Think your "exact" thoughts, but do read what the OP has told us, which is manual exposure & iso.

With total manual setting and auto ISO off, there is either an unknown firmware instruction that would override what most of us would expect to stay put or your firmware / camera now has a "bug" of some sort. A call to Nikon's tech people or the "camera shop guy" is called for. Also remember that the camera shop guy may not have an answer for you while the Nikon tech guys may have seen this "problem" before.

There is one thing the OP should be careful because I believe the problem doesn't happen often. With the intermittent problem a lot of time the repair shop guy simply sends the camera back and not fixing the problem.

Good point. I'll try calling on Monday.

I am not a Canon expert. But I have used many cameras in my life, including Canon. The "kerchunk" sound could be the lens exiting IS and parking. There are "lots of knobs" on modern cameras. That can be frustrating. What you describe could be a knob in the wrong setting. Do you have a camera store near you that sells Canon? If so I recommend you make a trip there and discuss this issue with them.
