Nikon D3400

Nikon D3400 is an entry-level DSLR camera and has been described as an ideal camera to enter the wonderful world of DSLR photography. What makes it such a good entry-level camera, and can it step up to more demanding tasks?


Easy To Use

One of the big reasons why the Nikon D3400 is highly regarded as an entry level DSLR camera is its simplicity. It is very easy to use, giving the photographer every opportunity to concentrate on framing a shot, or capturing a random moment, without having to worry about setting it up.


A Camera To Grow With

Photography skills develop over time, and the D3400 has enough features and settings to keep pace with a photographer's growing demands and technical skill. In other words, it goes beyond its entry-level status and won't need to be replaced in a hurry. It's an ideal camera to grow with.


Great For Junior

As an entry-level camera of some renown, the Nikon D3400 is a good option for younger photographers. Not only is it easy to use, but it is lightweight, making it easy for children to carry around with them for a long period of time. It is compact as well, a great feature for smaller hands.


The Numbers

The D3400 offers 24.2-megapixels, and a 3-inch screen with 170 degrees viewing angle. Full HD 1080p video promises good quality footage.


Keep On Snapping

Charge it up, then get snapping, and snapping, and snapping! The Nikon D3400 has a reputation for huge battery life, a great asset when you're capturing the beauty of nature miles away from the nearest power source.

Very nice and affordable camera!

I've been using it for almost a month now I guess, and this was my first dslr. It shoots really good photos in manual mode and in auto mode I experienced some noise in pictures in low light and in the night.

Nikon D3400

The Nikon D3300 has long been my go-to recommendation for a cheap dSLR, but after two years it's usually time to slap a new coat of paint on consumer products. Nikon's 2016 update to that camera, the D3400, has some small enhancements to bring it up to date, but nothing vital.

The Nikon D3400 delivers the image quality and speed that a first-time dSLR buyer should expect

A lot of the small annoyances from previous models remain, including tiny autofocus points in the viewfinder and a nonpersistent self-timer mode; Plus, its Bluetooth-only wireless solution isn't very good

Nikon D3400 review: The D3400's a bit better cheap dSLR than its predecessor -- but just a bit

The Nikon D3300 has long been my go-to recommendation for a cheap dSLR, but after two years it's usually time to slap a new coat of paint on consumer products. Nikon's 2016 update to that camera, the D3400, has some small enhancements to bring it up to date, but nothing vital. It remains a great value -- fast with very good photo and video quality and a new kit lens optimized for shooting via the LCD -- but its weak wireless file transfer barely feels like a step up from nothing.

Very good photo quality for its class plus performance fast enough to capture kids and pets make the Nikon D3400 A solid choice for a first dSLR.

The D3400 left a bit to be desired considering that this is supposed to be an updated version of the D3300. With the removal of the in-body sensor cleaning and the external mic port we expected there to be a few more updates to the D3400 and, well, we just didn't get them.

Nikon D3400 Review

The Nikon D3400 is an update to Nikon's entry-level DSLR, replacing the two year old D3300. The headline new feature is SnapBridge – Nikon's low-power Bluetooth connection that allows continuous image transfer to your smartphone in the background while you shoot.

Nikon D3400 Camera Review: Superior Shooter for Beginners

Nikon ' s latest entry-level DSLR, the 24 - megapixel D3400 , may not seem like much of an upgrade , and in some ways, it ' s not. In fact, it ' s missing a couple of features that were standard on its D3300 predecessor, such as a microphone jack and a dust-cleaning mechanism for the sensor.

Great image quality; Speedy performance; Excellent battery life; Good in low light; Easy transfer of images to mobile devices; Solid set of practical and creative features

No external microphone jack; Lack of dust-cleaning mechanism; No auto-exposure bracketing

Nikon makes DSLRs with two types of sensor – full-frame and APS-C. The new D3400 is Nikon's most entry-level camera, and takes on the smaller APS-C chip to keep costs down – Nikon calls this its DX range.
