Leaves turning invisible on short distance in render (not in viewport)

Leaves on Megascan trees turning invisible suddenly from short distance. In Movie Render Queue. Viewport is fine. Tried forcing LOD, screensize, clip level on leave material and every setting I could find on the subject. Really got me stumped. I need the scene in high quality video. The popup is really unacceptable. See examples below with just 3 frames difference on a 60fps render.
