Is the panasonic lumix g100 good for video?

The site doesn't have a verdict on the G100's video performance, so I won't guess. The Panasonic Lumix G100 page lists no in-body stabilisation, so for handheld footage you'll want stabilised lenses. The lens list includes the Olympus M.Zuiko 12-100mm f/4 IS PRO, a useful all-round zoom with stabilisation built in.

For vlogging, aim for a wide view of about 16-20mm full-frame equivalent. Two lenses on the G100 fit that:

• Olympus M.Zuiko 8-25mm f/4 PRO: 16-50mm equivalent, so the wide end suits vlogging.
• Panasonic Leica DG 9mm f/1.7: 18mm equivalent, a fixed wide with a fast aperture.

Whatever camera you pick, check the video guide for the features that matter: a front-facing screen, a microphone input, and light weight. Budget for sound too, as the audio section explains.
