Zoom Tool Broken Past 500%

Hey all,

 

I'm getting a weird issue when I use the Zoom tool past 500%. I do a lot of precise movements in Photoshop so I need to be able to zoom in that far. As I zoom past 500%, it becomes all oddly pixelated. Attached is a screenshot of what an entire black-covered canvas looks like when I zoom in. I've tried resetting my preferences and uninstalling/reinstalling Photoshop.

 

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I see now that the issue is caused by the pixel grid. I've disabled that and it fixed the issue. I guess I can't use the pixel grid anymore (no loss there for me, though!).

In photoshop go to Edit>Preferences>Technology Previews, check Deactivate Native Canvas and restart photoshop.
