This is a cheap camera but there is nothing cheap about its image quality. RAW files are excellent with consistently good white balance, sharpness and tonality. High ISO images are remarkably noise free – at ISO 6400 noise is barely visible and easily rem
The SnapBridge Bluetooth connectivity is no match for a full WiFi smartphonetocamera connection. It only transfers files from camera to phone and doesn't function as a wireless remote
This camera opens the door to the vast Nikon range of lenses and accessories. It is clearly aimed at those people who think that DSLRs are the only serious cameras worthy of consideration and at this price there certainly isn't much competition, except fr...
Despite being a fairly unexciting camera, the D3400 deserves our Editor's Choice commendation because it delivers high picture and video quality at an affordable price. It's up to individual buyers whether they are prepared to accept the loss of bracketin...

The Nikon D3400 has plenty going for it, with a beautifully compact body, a decent AF system, huge battery life and reliable image quality. It is, however, a familiar case of it currently being priced well above a number of older but better-specified alte...

Very compact and lightweight body, Superb battery life, Good single-shot AF performance, Easy to use, Very compact and quiet kit lens
No touchscreen, Poor connectivity options, No microphone port
The Nikon D3400 is a fine performer and more than enough camera for most people just getting started with DSLR photography. Its body is small and light and its specs, while very similar to its predecessor's, are perfectly decent for a model of its class...

Surprisingly light and compact for a DSLR, Bundled here with a smooth, quiet and powerful zoom lens, Easy to use and even comes with incamera prompts and tips, Good price point for an entrylevel DSLR, Long battery life at claimed 1,200 shots per charge
LCD monitor is fixed and not a touchscreen, No builtin wifi, Few preset scene modes to choose from, Video is 1080p, not 4K, Much is made of the Snapbridge cloud service, but we had issues when setting it up
