Is the sony e 16mm f 2 8 good for vlogging?

Not really, not on its own. My vlogging guide wants a lens that gives about 16-20mm full-frame equivalent at arm's length, because stabilisation crops in further and a 24mm view ends up tight. On APS-C, this 16mm frames like 24mm on full frame, so it sits at the tight end of that range. It's also not stabilised.

It does fit the small APS-C bodies that vlogging setups usually use, such as the Sony ZV-E10 and the Sony a6400. If you already own one, it's a usable, compact lens, but you'll probably want something wider for talking-to-camera work. Read the vlogging section of the video guide for the full checklist, including the flip-out screen and microphone input, which matter as much as the lens.
