Does anyone's X-T5 EVF flicker at times?

I've noticed that from time to time the EVF on my X-T5 flickers like it is trying to meter the scene. I haven't noticed this in previous cameras I've used like the X-T4 or x-pro3. Searching around on google, I have found some descriptions of this phenomenon all the way back to the X-E2. Not sure how I can fix it though. I have noticed it in outdoor scenes, mainly landscapes is what I am shooting. I have it in AF-S. Single point autofocus. Metering is multi. Flicker reduction is on. Boost mode on. Still seeing this from time to time and it's annoying and I am not indoors. Any thoughts?

bumping again. anyone have this issue? I'm wondering of it is related to using a sigma 18-50 lens because of lack of aperture ring. though I see it when my aperture is locked at say f5.6
