    Not a Vlogger but this camera would be great if you are. Pictures are extremely clear as well as image stabilization. Highly recommend the vlog attachment which really helps if you shoot on the go.

    The camera is not what i expected. It takes blurry pictures. Like if you plan on taking a lot of night pictures, you would need to buy a separate flash and another lense.
