Share photos that tell stories

The difference is in the details

Colours that pop in any light

Recording beautiful video with the D3500 is as easy as shooting photos. Just flip the Live View lever and press the record button.

Picture after amazing picture

Some of the best moments only last a split second. Press and hold the shutter button on the Nikon D3500 and capture up to 5 frames per second at full resolution with tack-sharp focus, ensuring you land the shot that matters.

Fast, accurate focusing

Unlike typical smartphones, fast-moving subjects are no problem for the Nikon D3500. 11 autofocus points are spread across the frame, and full-time AF locks onto your subject and keeps it in focus while you capture amazing shot after shot.
