The time is now. Shoot brilliantly, share instantly with the D3500.
The D3500 makes it spectacularly easy to shoot and share DSLR-quality images. Nikon's SnapBridge keeps the camera connected to your smart device via Bluetooth so you can actually sync photos as you shoot. Pick up your phone and the photos are there, ready to share: no fuss, no waiting.
And these aren't just any photos. The large 24.2 MP DX-format sensor delivers outstanding low-light results and works together with your NIKKOR lens to achieve artistic-looking background blur. Guide Mode is there to help you develop your photographic skills, while the high-capacity battery ensures the D3500 is always ready to light up your feed.
Blow your friends away: DSLR image quality
With the D3500 in your hands, it's easy to create high-quality images that never fail to impress. Move beyond snapshots and revel in the freedom to achieve dazzling images in low light or to create portraits with smooth background blur. Whether you shoot photos or movies, the large 24.2 megapixel DX-format sensor works with Nikon's powerful EXPEED 4 image processor and your NIKKOR lens to ensure richly detailed results.
Share instantly with SnapBridge: the constant connection with your smart device
Light up your social feeds with DSLR-quality images in seconds! Nikon's game-changing SnapBridge utilises Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology to let the D3500 maintain a constant, low-power link with your smartphone or tablet. Connecting the camera to your smart device is simple. Once it's done, the connection is always on. The camera can synch photos to your smart device as you shoot, from wherever you are, without you having to reconnect each time. You don't need to worry about draining your camera's battery and you can continue to use your smart device without interruption. SnapBridge works in the background to transfer your images. Simply pick up your smart device and your photos will be there: images synced while you shoot are automatically re-sized so they're easy to review and quick to upload to social media. SnapBridge lets you share it right there in the moment.
Take better images everywhere: the small DSLR that keeps on shooting
Small enough to grab and go, the lightweight D3500 is a brilliant camera with which to create unforgettable high-definition photos and movies. You can shoot for longer and capture up to 1550 shots on one charge thanks to the camera's low-energy design and the high-capacity battery. The large 7.5 cm (3.0 in) high-resolution LCD monitor lets you compose or review shots and apply special effects in perfect clarity. And wherever you are, the in-camera Guide Mode is right there to offer step-by-step assistance should you want it. If you're new to DSLR photography, or want to learn more, Guide Mode is the ultimate assist: like having an expert by your side, this mode shows you exactly how to adjust the camera settings so you can capture great photos and movies.
Go cinematic: Full HD movies
With the D3500, shooting photos is only half the fun. When the occasion calls for video, the camera's D-Movie function lets you record smooth, finely detailed Full HD videos at frame rates up to 50p/60p. Continuous autofocus keeps footage perfectly sharp when the action gets going. And you can easily film street scenes at night, or record the fun at indoor parties, thanks to the camera's wide ISO light-sensitivity range.
