Is the canon rf 10 20mm f 4l is stm good for video?

It can be a good video lens, mainly for vlogging and wide shots. It's stabilised and autofocuses, and its 10-20mm range on full frame covers the wide view that the video guide recommends for talking to the camera at arm's length. On an APS-C body it frames like 16-32mm, which still covers that 16-20mm sweet spot.

For filmmaking it's less clear-cut. My page lists it as f/4 maximum but doesn't say whether the aperture stays constant through the zoom, and the filmmaking checklist cares about that. Check the spec before you buy for serious work.

If you're vlogging, I'd pair it with an APS-C body like the Canon EOS R7. If you want full frame, the lighter Canon EOS R8 is a sensible match.
