Is the nikon af s 35mm f 1 4g good for video?

It can work for video, but it isn't a strong pick for vlogging. At 35mm on full frame, or about 52mm on APS-C, it's tighter than the wide view the video guide recommends for talking to the camera at arm's length. The lens also has no stabilisation, so handheld footage will need a steadier hand or a rig.

Its f/1.4 aperture gives a shallow depth of field, which suits interviews and b-roll with a blurred background. Whatever you shoot, budget for sound as well. The audio section explains why that matters more than the lens.

I can't vouch for each body's video features from this page. Check the camera's own page for a front-flipping screen and a microphone input before you buy.
