Hi I bought it with the 18-135 STM for that very reason to do video, but a camera needs to be reliable. I understand from the service company that it could be a software problem but it was raised on another thread about 5 months ago, but there does not seem to be a fix for the fault. I would be happy if it did what it was supposed to do. Thanks for your interest but just be careful when you use video or live view. Cheers.

One suggestion, in case you haven't tried it, make sure that you do a low-level format of your memory card INSIDE the camera, have the camera do it and don't rely on a preformatted card or one that you've formatted somewhere else. Cameras can be very finicky about their memory card formatting and I can see that causing issues such as this. It's free to try doing it, so if you haven't yet you might want to. It just doesn't seem to have been a common issue around here for that camera, though maybe most users here don't do a lot of video.

It's nice to say that nice pictures are nice.
