I shoot in live view shooting mode every time. The button for live view shooting has to be manually pressed every time I turn on the camera.

Is it possible to set the SL3 so that live view shooting is the default mode when I turn the camera on?

Thanks.

If you always shoot in live view mode, you should have bough mirrorless instead. M50 is smaller and lighter than SL3.

You are right - except that the SL3 is a much better webstreaming camera using the new Webcam software which is why I picked it up. I would much prefer the M50 but it is not ideal for webstreaming as it does not have a clean output with eye focus, unlimited stream time rather than 3 minutes etc.
