DX-Format DSLR for Beginners

The Nikon D3500 is a lightweight 24.2MP DX-format DSLR built around a CMOS sensor without an optical low-pass filter. The EXPEED 4 processor delivers a native ISO range of 100 to 25600 and 5 fps continuous shooting. It records Full HD 1080p video at 60 fps and includes SnapBridge Bluetooth for wireless transfers. A 3.0 inch 921k-dot LCD monitor handles live view and playback. The Guide Mode assists new users in learning core techniques.

Suits First-Time DSLR Users; Not for Advanced Video

This camera suits buyers moving up from a smartphone who want an interchangeable-lens system with simple controls and long battery life. The Guide Mode teaches exposure and composition basics in real time. Photographers who need 4K recording, a microphone input, or a headphone jack should look elsewhere. The fixed rear screen does not tilt or articulate, limiting low-angle or vlogging setups. The 11-point AF system covers a modest area for fast action.

24.2MP Sensor Without Low-Pass Filter

The defining specification is the 24.2MP DX-format CMOS sensor that omits an optical low-pass filter. This design choice maximises detail and sharpness straight from the sensor, benefiting landscape and portrait work where fine texture matters. Buyers who prioritise maximum resolving power over moiré protection will find this the decisive feature. If moiré control is critical for fabric or architecture, a filtered sensor would be more appropriate.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the D3500 is working correctly after setup?

Take a test shot and check the 3.0" 921k-dot LCD for a sharp 24.2MP image; verify the 11-point AF locks on target and that the ISO 100-25600 range responds to lighting changes.

What comes in the box with the D3500 body only, and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains the D3500 camera body; you will need to add a compatible F-mount lens, a memory card, a battery, and a charger to start shooting.

Which D3500 version should I choose for my needs?

This model is the 33895 body-only configuration; select it if you already own lenses or want to choose a specific lens separately rather than buying a kit.
