Capture High Quality Photos and Videos
Boasting an APS-C size 24.2-megapixel CMOS Sensor the D3500 captures super sharp images and crystal-clear Full HD video at 60p. The large sensor helps to captures shots with a shallow depth of field for a great looking blurry background.Share Your Images Automatically
Sharing shots is easy with SnapBrige by Nikon, because it can be setup to automatically transfer images direct to your smart device. The camera uses a low power Bluetooth system to maintain a constant connection to your smart phone or tablet. This means that within seconds of capturing a high-quality image you can transfer it to your device and have it online in record time.EXPEED 4 Processor
An EXPEED 4 processor allows the camera to capture a huge number of images quickly, as many as 5 in just 1 second. This can be used to create a selection of different shots, perfect for those moments when your subject is moving quickly. The ultra-fast burst speed is also great for group photos to increase the chance of getting at least one image where everyone is smiling.Low Light Friendly
The large APS-C size sensor in the D3500 has an improved ISO range of 100-25600, which makes the camera able to shoot in less than ideal low light conditions like parties or music concerts. The wide ISO range can also be used to capture images with a faster shutter speed to control blurry shots caused by camera shake.11-Point Autofocus System
The D3500’s has an advanced 11-point autofocus system for quick and accurate focusing performance that allows you to freeze candid moments with maximum clarity. With 4 different autofocus modes including a tracking mode that for moving subjects like kids, or animals you can be confident that the camera can deliver in-focus images every time.Improved Battery Performance
The ability to capture a lot of images without needing to change batteries is especially useful and the D3500 has built on the previous model’s performance by a significant amount. You can now shoot up to approximately 1550 without needing to recharge or swap batteries. This makes it a perfect camera to take on holidays or long adventures.3-inch TFT LCD Screen
Frame your shot up perfectly with a 921k dot resolution 3-inch LCD Screen and review your shots with absolute clarity. The screen can also be used when recording video and changing camera settings in the menu system.Optical Viewfinder
One of the main reasons people buy DSLR’s is because of their optical viewfinders that use a series of mirrors to show you exactly what your camera will take an image of. The D3500 has a high-quality optical viewfinder which allows you to achieve critical focus and faster autofocus speeds with an impressive 95% frame coverage.Built in Camera Guide
One of the best features for up and coming beginner photographers is the integrated guide mode that provides an easy way to help you learn the basics of photography while playing with your new toy.Special Effects
The D3500 has a massive range of creative effects that you can experiment with to change your pictures, with effects like super vivid colours, toy camera effect as well as a bunch of in camera editing options like cropping, sepia and fisheye for more creative photography.This kit includes Nikon D3500 + Nikkor AF-P 18-55mm VR Lens + Nikkor AF-P 70-300mm VR Lens.
