Beautiful quality images

Enjoy gorgeous images worth sharing with the Nikon D3500 DSLR Camera. Whether you want to capture a portrait of your family or snap the view of the beach while you're on holiday, this camera helps you hang on to cherished memories that will last a lifetime. The included kit lens is great for getting started in the world of photography, providing the perfect focal length for portraits and landscapes.

The D3500 has an EXPEED image processing system that helps to improve every photo. It fine-tunes the settings while you're taking photos, so you don't have to worry about duff results.

The CMOS APS-C image sensor is up to 15 times larger than the ones used in typical smartphones, meaning this camera captures crisp pictures filled with detail and contrast for you to share with your friends and family.

Feels natural in your hands

You don't have to be a steady-handed professional to take clear images. The deep grip lets the camera rest comfortably in your hands to take balanced images. The controls are conveniently placed too, so you don't have to fool around with the settings when you need to get that quick shot of an elephant grazing while on safari.

The D3500's compact design also makes this camera ideal for travel, as it is built to last and is easily transported so you can take memorable pictures while on holiday without bringing a whole extra bag.

Share your pictures

Keep your followers in the loop with the Snapbridge connection. This camera works seamlessly with your Bluetooth smartphone so that you can share your awesome photos with your friends while you're on the go.

Simple to use

Want professional shots but haven't got much technical knowledge? Auto mode takes all the guess work out of shooting so you don't have to worry about aperture, shutter speed or ISO. Just point and shoot.

If you want to learn how the pros do it, then select guide mode and follow the easy on-screen guidance. 

Picture this

The decisive moment, that perfect shot, missed because you were waiting for your camera to be ready to take a photo again. But it's not your camera or your shooting technique – it's all down to having the right memory card.

To prevent that annoying lag when capturing high res images and HD video, opt for a high performance memory card with a fast write speed. Now you can focus on your subject.
