Nikon D3500 24.2MP DX-Format DSLR

The Nikon D3500 is a lightweight DSLR built around a 24.2MP DX-format CMOS sensor and EXPEED 4 processor. It shoots continuously at 5 fps and records Full HD 1080p video at 60 fps. The 3.0 inch 921k-dot LCD monitor provides clear live view and playback. SnapBridge Bluetooth enables wireless image transfer to a mobile device.

Ideal for first-time DSLR users

Guide Mode helps beginners learn techniques such as shallow depth of field step by step. The native ISO range of 100-25600 handles varied lighting without a low-pass filter for added sharpness. The 11-point AF system covers basic subject tracking. Photographers needing 4K video, dual card slots or a higher resolution viewfinder should consider other models.

Check lens compatibility and accessory needs

The body uses the Nikon F mount so confirm your lenses support DX format or accept the crop factor. Verify that your computer can edit 1080p60 footage and that you have a compatible memory card. SnapBridge requires a smartphone with Bluetooth Low Energy for automatic 2MP transfers.

Questions about this item

What Nikon F-mount lens do I need to start shooting with the D3500 body?

Any AF-P, AF-S or AF-I lens will autofocus on the D3500; older AF-D lenses require manual focus because the body lacks a built-in focus motor.

Can I use my existing DX and FX lenses on this 24.2MP sensor?

Yes — DX lenses cover the APS-C frame fully, while FX lenses project a larger circle and work in crop mode on the D3500.

How do I confirm SnapBridge Bluetooth is transferring 2MP images to my phone automatically?

Enable SnapBridge in the setup menu, pair the camera with the Nikon app, then take a test shot; a 2MP copy should appear in the app within seconds.
