Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great all-around camera. More than enough bells and whistles for a beginner; there is a learning curve but plenty of "how-to" info is available. This is our first DSLR; decided to upgrade from point & shoot digital. Long ago we were manual SLR power users; it's hard getting used to the camera being so automated. We got it for taking high-quality photos of artwork and scenery. The quality of images is outstanding, very glad we made the investment! Feeling like this was a good value and we're just getting started. The 18-55mm lens that came with the body is just right for our needs.

Great camera. Better quality than my cell phone. I am a more advanced photog but love the weight and the fact the lenses for all my Nikon cameras fit. It is really light weight but what really matter are the quality of the photos.. They are great.. I would suggest a swivel flash for a little more power.

Read a bunch of other reviews before buying this camera. Was an anniversary gift and replacement to my wife’s older d40x she bought years ago. That camera is still nice, but the new one is lighter weight, has more modern features, and a very quiet and stable lens system. We took this on a trip shortly after purchase and it was nice to be able to take more shots on a single charge and the weight difference was definitely noticeable from the D40X. Nikon has always seemed a dependable brand for this type of camera.

Best purchase I have made, fast camera good looking

I've always used a point and shoot camera but I wanted one that can do a bit more. This camera is easy to use for someone who doesn't really know much about photography. I've been very happy with the ease of using the camera and the quality of the photographs. I mostly use the auto setting but this camera can do a lot more. The only think I don't particularly like is the shape of the camera and the placement of the buttons.

I've been using this camera for almost two years and I think it is one of the best entry level cameras out there the only flaws are there is no mic jack for video and the the low light capability is not great at all but besides that it's a great camera for people that do photography as a hobby or to learn

I never thought I would see a day that I buy a camera, tired of using my phone I must admit the quality and price was solid I’m in love with it now think ima be a YouTuber soon

This camera is honestly one of the best I have owned so far. Compared to an iPhone X camera, the DSLR is the better option. Definitely worth it!

This camera is easy to understand and use. It is comfortable to hold and light weight. It has all the features my wife was looking for in a camera.

This nikon camera is lighter than other camera. The battery lasts long and easy to carry. Good price and high quality

Great light weight camera. Picture quality is great and love the video option.

new into cameras and stuff, but this camera has amazing quality!! takes some time to get used to the features but not too difficult

The color and clearance of the pictures is supper, I have the lens 18-55 and also lens 70 to 250 , both lenses gave me excellent details in the pictures I would recommend the Nikon D3500 DSLR camera, for portraits, casual snap shots, long distance shots (my pictures from the Moon eclipse were great).

great camera. good quality, excellent ease of use

Great DSLR DX camera. When I purchased from Best Buy I thought I was getting the kit that came with the extra 70-300mm lens, camera bag and tripod. I even chatted with customer service who confirmed the bag was included. What was sent was just the camera with the 18-50mm kit lens. I could have saved $50.00 if I would have purchased elsewhere. Now I need to buy a camera bag as well.

I love this camera. I've had a D40 and a D3100 in the past. Took a break for a few years and recently got back into shooting. This camera made it easy to get back into the comfort of using a Nikon, and some of the new additions since the last time such as the remote shutter feature are amazing.

Got it as my first camera, and was really easy to get the hang of. Will need to buy a mini HDMI in order to be used as a webcam for computer, but aside from that it was a great buy.

I bought this camera because I was going on vacation in the mountains. I wanted to take good quality photos and this camera outdid good and made them great. The only thing I wish it would have came with was the second lens that zoomed in further. Other than that, the camera is a great deal and well worth the amount.

Bought it during thanksgiving on sale. Got a great deal! Good camera for starters. Fully satisfied!

It gives me a lot for the price. Good camera for beginners to start off with.
