    Best Starter Kit DSLR Camera

    After much research I went with this camera and am very happy. Fresh out of the box I was able to take great pictures even in low light, without a flash! The guide feature is great to get you started on auto, I’m still learning what all the camera can do on manual settings.

    When I first saw the ad for this camera I was surprised at the price. I made the decision to purchase and I’m amazed at the ease of use and the picture quality. They call it a beginner camera but it’s so much more than that with two lenses and a case you can’t beat it.

    Excellent 24 MP Camera for a Beginner

    Camera takes excellent pictures with the provided lenses as long as there is enough natural light. In lower light situation it does better taking pictures of your subject with the flash if you are reasonably close to your subject. At a distance the flash just didn't seem to do the job so for distances in low light you may want to get a higher aperture lens to let more light in, a higher powered flash to attach to the camera or use it on a tripod. For the price, the camera, lenses, bag and accessories were a great buy. It was very easy to use right out of the box.

    This camera takes incredible pictures. And when you pick it up on sale the value is amazing. The 2 lenses take some time to learn but they are both amazing. The bluetooth feature to your phone is a huge bonus. Overall great camera.

    I am still learning all the ins and outs but over all it is easy to use and takes really good photos and videos. The larger zoom lens really zooms some far away things with good clarity. Cant wait until I know it all.

    The Nikon D3500 is as complex or easy as you want it to be. It’s super easy to use even though I am new to DSLR cameras. The picture quality is fantastic and the list of options is truly impressive. Most impressive is how intuitive it is to use!

    Fantastic Entry-Level Camera

    This camera is amazing. In all aspects of the word. It’s lightweight, extremely portable, and takes fantastic pictures. Everything is able to be changed exactly how you want. The possibility’s on this camera are endless. Night time shots (with a tripod, I suggest) are beautiful as well as beautiful daytime shots. This camera does it all. Only downside is that it DOES NOT link up with Capture One if you use that program. It is NOT a supported camera. But you are still able to import your photos and edit them perfectly fine with a .NEF to .DNG converter. Other than that, this camera is everything you pay for and more!

    This is my first DSLR and I absolutely love it! There are a lot of great features for beginners or an intermediate user like myself stepping away from my point and shoot bridge camera into the world of DSLR's. The D3500 takes beautiful photos on both of the included lenses. Battery life is great as well. It's definitely worth it, couldn't be happier. Once I master all the features, I'm sure I'll love it even more lol.
