Nikon D3500 24.2MP DSLR Camera + AF-P DX 18-55mm VR NIKKOR Lens Kit + TRD ® 20 Piece Digital Essential Kit

Product Information

Because it's a DSLR, you have to flip the mirror up, block the optical viewfinder and use live-view mode to shoot video. It’s only 124mm wide, which means in all it’s not that different in the hand – or on the shoulder – as many mirrorless cameras.

You can’t charge over USB, which is disappointing, but during our time with the camera we didn’t even notice a percentage drop on the battery. The Canon EOS Rebel T7/2000D and Fujifilm X-T100 tie for first place here, while the Nikon D3500 and Sony A68 are noisier across the ISO range. It sells for such a modest sum of money (relatively speaking) that it’s hard to really dig on the D3500. I keep thinking I may want to upgrade to the 5100~7500 lines but they do nothing more for me than what the D3300 already does.And, because we were looking through an optical viewfinder, we only found this out once we'd taken the shot: making it hard to preemptively apply exposure compensation to correct this. It will effectively last for days at a time if you shoot through the optical viewfinder: longer than its predecessor or mirrorless cameras.

Another question you maybe can address after a while is when do you shoot, in low light in bright light, indoors or outdoors? They use pentamirrors and are dim, impossible to use for precise manual focusing, and have low magnification. The photos you take with the D3500 capture more than the moment—they capture the feeling of the moment, a feeling that can be shared immediately with your friends and family and then relived for a lifetime.

It's like when we went from manual focus cameras to autofocus cameras, people would say, "If you can't handle the basic task of manually focusing your lens, then just leave photography!

Peak Design's newest Camera Cubes allow you to turn any pack or bag into a camera-carrying accessory.

Entry level cameras usually are the passport to people who want to explore their inclination to photography, no matter if they are casual shooters or new enthusiasts. Its easy-to-use design and excellent picture and video quality, and easy sharing options make this camera your ideal photography partner. If you already have a D3400, this probably won’t be the camera for you, simply because of the limited number of improvements the D3500 actually offers.

If you really want to know how a 'small, dim hole' looks like, look somewhere else but not in the finder of the D3500.

Seriously, like always since Fall 2018, when the D3500 came out: no DSLM does have its Battery Runtime (CIPA 1550 shots - into real life, way much more). The Fujifilm X-T100 easily wins for dynamic range in our lab tests, with the Canon EOS Rebel T7/2000D in second place and the Nikon D3500 and Sony A68 very slightly behind. so start spending time with your camera and edit your image in some professional editor app (lightroom).If you’re comparing the D3500 against mirrorless alternatives, its body is going to seem pretty fat and chunky by comparison.
