Specially built for budding photographers.
Nikon recently debuted its latest and first entry-level camera, the D3400 DSLR. Specially built for budding photographers, this new shooter boasts a 24.2-megapixel CMOS sensor (DX-format), an Expeed 4 processor with enhanced image quality, improved white balance, as well as a phenomenal ISO range spanning 100-25,600 to help with low light conditions. Moreover, the D3400 is fitted with 5-fps continuous shooting alongside 1080p video that caps at 60 frames per second. The most standout feature definitely goes to its SnapBridge connectivity that is also equipped on the D500—a more professional sports camera built by the Japanese manufacturer. This Bluetooth feature will allow you to transfer images from the camera to your smartphone or tablet.
Slated for an early September release, folks can purchase the D3400 in a kit that comes with an AF-P DX Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 G VR lens for $650 USD. Conversely, there is another option to buy the camera with the aforesaid lens, along with an AF-P DX Nikkor 70-300mm f4.5/6.3 G ED for $1,000 USD. Nikon will also debut a new line of ultra-quiet motor lenses dubbed AF-P DX Nikkor for the D3400 only.
