There is difference between Steady Shot (used for still photography) and Active Steady Shot (electronic stabization, used for video). The YouTuber and I are talking about Active Steady Shot.

His saying it in a YouTube video does not make it a fact. The facts are that electronic stabilization never works for still photography, and Sony writes that Active Steady Shot is only effective for video.

What is the Active SteadyShot feature?

Electronic video stabilisation works by discarding bits of the image at the sensor edges to align elements in successive frames. I can't see how this could work for stills.
But I would like to know how "SteadyShot (still image)" works.

well, @SrMi seems to know all about how it works, perhaps he/she can explain.

SteadyShot is Sony's trademarked name for image stabilization.

Is it opto-mechanical or purely digital?

SteadyShot is OIS or IBIS. Active SteadyShot is electronic. One can replace the term SteadyShot with "stabilization."

By the way, I changed my mind about the Sony RX1R III after holding it in my hands. The EVF quality, oddly enough, is quite sufficient for comfortable shooting. The camera feels 2 times smaller than the Q3 43 and fits into a large jacket pocket.
