## Description

Before the Nikon D3400 Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm Lens (Black), you chose your smartphone camera for convenience. Zooming was clumsy. Shooting in low light was nearly impossible. Capturing fast action was a game of luck. But after the D3400, you'll see that you were compromising image quality. That some of the greatest photos happen when the light is low. That fast action can be frozen in perfect clarity. And that a camera and a smartphone can work together in harmony to make the photos you share absolutely amazing. Features: Stunning simplicity - Photos and videos captured with the D3400 and a superb NIKKOR lens are as vibrant and lifelike as the moments they preserve. Shoot in extremely low light without a problem. Freeze fast-action in its tracks. Create portraits with rich, natural skin tones and beautifully blurred backgrounds. The photos you share will amaze everyone-even yourself. Camera, smartphone and cloud in perfect harmony - SnapBridge has changed the way cameras and smartphones work together-and only Nikon has it. Take a picture with the D3400 and it’s automatically transferred to your compatible smartphone or tablet, ready to share. SnapBridge works seamlessly with NIKON image space, a cloud storage and sharing site, to back-up your photos and to help you create and share albums with your friends and family. The future of photo sharing is here. A camera designed for you - Compact and lightweight, the D3400 is designed to go everywhere you go. Even first-time DLSR owners will quickly feel at home-the camera's controls are smartly laid out for comfort and intuitive control. The bright optical viewfinder provides a sharp, glare-free view of the world, and the comfortable grip enables precise handling. The gateway to better photography - The D3400 makes photography easy and fun, freeing you to focus on your natural talents-framing great shots, anticipating special moments and finding unique perspectives in everyday scenes.

Review: The D3400 Honest review. - Okay ....this is an entry level DSLR that might not have the highest tech available on the market today but it does a TREMENDOUS job at what it was designed for. Yes.. it has only 11 Auto focus points and doesn't offer things like multiple exposure shooting (for HDR photos) and/or support XQD card formats but this light DX camera is very much capable of taking incredible photos and delivers great image quality, and sharpness. If you're new to photography and are looking for something that will not break your budget don't look any further this camera is everything you need to get better. It doesn't have an overwhelming amount of config options so it gives you a chance to learn the basics without feeling intimidated. I've been shooting portraits with this baby for quite a while now and I'm fairly certain there is no sub-1200 camera there that can compete. Having said that i believe this camera is more for still images than film making. For the latter I'd probably go with Canon as their continuous autofocus is superior to Nikon's. Tip for absolute beginners: Unless you simply want to take snapshots without much composition and lighting don't be discouraged if the photos you took don't have the sort of quality and "pop" as those in magazines or online.. There is usually quite a bit of post processing to be done before that photo becomes truly remarkable. Your 18-55mm kit lens should be just fine for the first few months until you get a hang of your camera and photography basics. After that you can experiment with different focal lengths and lenses. There are quite a few nikkor lenses specifically designed for DX format cameras ( like the 35mm f1.8 ) and a few full frame lenses ( like the 85mm f1.8 ) below 500 bucks that will deliver amazing results. Have fun and remember you can't learn this great art by sitting at home and reading desertcart reviews or watching YT videos... grab this fine piece of gear and go play with it. Practice makes perfect... keep on shooting!
Review: SNAPBRIDGE BROKEN, PLEASE FIX - EDIT: Snapbridge's functionality was fixed after the latest iOS Update, but it was broken for 2 months between updates. Incredibly frustrating, but I guess Nikon never intended on fixing it themselves. So brace yourselves--it might stop working with the next iOS update. Review updated from 2 out of 5 to 5 out of 5. All right, so the camera itself is 5/5, don't get me wrong. If you're trying to learn how to shoot with an SLR like I was when I bought this a little while ago, it's a great starter camera. There isn't anything I can say about the picture taking ability of this camera that isn't already stated by other reviewers here. HOWEVER, what I see as a key functionality and what sold me the D3400 over the D3300 was Snapbridge--the bluetooth connecting app/functionality that allows you to transfer pictures from the camera to your smartphone. Yeah, that DOES NOT work on iOS right now. Your camera will connect to your phone, but the actual photo transferring is broken. So, it's just enough to tease you that it might work, before totally disappointing you by telling you it failed to connect. For somebody who just got the camera, you might think it's your fault, your phone's fault, or you have a faulty camera that needs to go through the warranty process. Nope, it's just a broken app and Nikon not fixing it. It's been 2 months since Snapbridge stopped working. And while Nikon has been decent enough to acknowledge on the app's download page, they're still selling cameras while their app is broken...and I cannot understand why it hasn't been fixed yet. The only explanation I have is that they aren't putting the resources towards fixing it, which is unacceptable. They're still selling these cameras on what basically comes down to false advertising when it comes to Bluetooth functionality. There are plenty complaints about the app on the app store, but I'm guessing the negative reviews won't make a difference unless it affects actual camera sales. So, I'm doing my part to drop the rating here enough that people might take a glance at Canon cameras whose bluetooth functionalities are still nominal.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Still my most-frequently-used camera
*by M***L on March 11, 2024*

I purchased this in 2020 as an "entry-level" DSLR, but four years later, it's still the model I reach for most frequently. It's beginner-friendly but it's also an excellent camera in its own right, and the only other cameras I've purchased since are niche vintage models. My experience with this camera has not influenced me to seek out other DSLR makers or other Nikon models; it's a completely lovely daily-driver. The default lens that comes with it is incredibly versatile, and Nikon (in addition to several other manufacturers) makes many excellent lenses that are suitable for this model. I'm not a professional, and I primarily shoot food, portraits, and landscapes. In case it's useful, my most-often-used lenses for this camera are: - Nikon 85mm f/3.5G AF-S DX Micro ED (VR-II) - NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-P DX VR - Nikon AF S NIKKOR 85mm f/1.8G Fixed lens with AF
