Re: stills during video feature, anyone?

I don't know if I can help you.  I just started taking video pictures with the Canon T7i (800D) camera.  I take both video and stills.  I didn't like using the Canon T7i (800D) camera for video because I could not use the viewfinder.  We are forced to use the LCD screen (which is normal for a DSLR camera).  I couldn't see what I was trying to take in bright sunlight and the video would "shake" too much.  So I recently bought two Canon M50 Mark II cameras which allow me to take videos with the viewfinder (for better composition and control).  I'm a newbie with video photography, but I find that it's important to know and understand.  I'm still learning....  The EVF on the mirrorless Canon M50 Mark ii is not as good as the OVF, but it's better than the LCD screen for video (from what little experience I have with it).
