Is the pentax smc da 16 50mm f 2 8 ed al if sdm good for video?

I can't tell you much about this lens's video performance specifically. The lens page lists it as an autofocus zoom with f/2.8, but it has no image stabilisation, and I don't have video-specific notes on it.

On APS-C it frames roughly like a 24-75mm on full frame. That's a sensible, versatile range for talking heads, interviews and general footage, but it's not the wide view that vlogging setups usually want. Without stabilisation, you'll want a tripod, gimbal or steady technique. Whatever lens you use, budget for sound too, as the video guide explains. You can see which bodies it pairs with on the lens page.
