I agree that this should be the default behavior.

Very recently me and "Viewhance" extension developer solved this problem by implementing reverse scaling (1/1,25 zoom in case of 125% Windows scaling) in Viewhance, it can be enabled via hidden preference.

So, in the meantime, you can acheive 100% zoom for images on separate tabs with any windows scaling by installing Viewhance https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/viewhance/impppjchnpfgknmbaaghfeopcgfoilac?hl=ru and then you should paste in Viewhance settings "{"scaling": "*"}" into "Export/import settings" field and then hit "Import" button)

More info on this solution https://github.com/Deathamns/Viewhance/issues/46

But, again, this certainly needs to be the default behavior. It makes 0 sense to zoom images on separate tabs. Zooming in damages quality (image becomes blurry) and it does not use full pixel density of display.

And the same problem is on videos on separate tabs. Before we implemented the solution in Viewhance, there was (generally inferior in quality) "Media DPI Scale Reset" extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/media-dpi-scale-reset/ldbbnnlmfhcgdkahhphhlambjacippmb - it can zoom to 100% videos on separate tabs as well.

Videos on separate tabs should not be zoomed in by Windows scaling.
