Pros: Value for money, solid, essential and functional construction

Cons: over time it could be "too essential", operational speed in 2025

Opinion: This camera is the perfect answer if you are looking for a resistant, compact, no-frills reflex, but at the same time cheap and capable of pulling out excellent shots. The construction is perfectly in line with Nikon's standards, that is, almost perfect, I have used this body without problems for years, without giving it much consideration and it certainly never complained, even after falls or sessions in light rain. Despite the compact size and low weight, the ergonomics are excellent, I have large hands and despite this the little finger does not come out of the figure of the camera, and I can shoot for a long time without having discomfort. The user experience is also improved by the position of all, few, keys, placed where you would expect it. The quality of the files that this sensor manages to churn out is very good, the 24 mega pixels are a perfect compromise between definition and ISO tightness, also the raw are light and will not give problems even if worked on computers that are not very new (about 20mb). The resistance to high iso could be a limit for some, even if for what is my use I hardly use it above 1600iso, a value at which it still copes, at 3200 the noise becomes much more intrusive, especially if the photo is not exposed correctly and you have to go and recover underexposed areas in post. The huge range of lenses available is another of its pluses, absolutely to be taken into consideration, especially if you look at the second-hand market. The battery has a satisfactory lifespan. Clearly, being an entry level body, you have to make some compromises, fully justified by a price that is absolutely affordable today (

Pros: Exceptional quality/price.

Cons: Fixed screen.

Opinion: I've been using this apsc for some time which is a luxury for an entry-level. I replaced it with a d5300 just to have the mobile screen, wi-fi and a few more focus points but it still does its job perfectly. I found it to be a reliable and versatile camera for a modest price paid compared to other cameras.

Pros: Complete and robust entry level

Cons: For its price nothing in particular

Opinion: It was my first DSLR, previously I used a Canon Powershot 500 bridge. Bought in 2016, with 18/55 and 70/300 DX, I preferred it to the entry level Canon of the time because of the 24 mega sensor instead of the 18 of the competitor and I must say that I did not regret it at all. It was perfect to introduce me into the reflex world, easy to use completely in manual, small and light, it holds well in the hand, capable of churning out very sharp shots. The ISO hold is good up to 1600, but in well-lit urban environments at night I used it with decent results even at 3200, even if the noise, of course, is noticeable. The AF, when used on static subjects or in slow movements, is absolutely up to par. After a couple of years I also took the 35mm fixed 1.8 ED FX and I must say that with this lens it has become a sort of "little bomb", in portraits or in urban night shots with a fixed camera and long exposure it is a combination capable of bringing out beautiful photos. To add that it is also very robust, it fell to the ground a couple of times without consequences. I sold it after six years of great satisfaction to get an FF. It is a perfect camera to start with, to be recommended without a shadow of a doubt to those who want to enter the reflex world or, in any case, have a "serious" camera without breaking the bank. For value for money I give it a more than deserved 9.

Pros: Probably the SLR with the best quality / price ratio in the world used Nikon. The quality of the images it churns out is embarrassing, as are its more expensive contemporary SLRs (see 7000 series). It's damn small, light and discreet. It is the cheapest SLR compatible with AF-P lenses. The battery lasts forever. You can't get it off.

Cons: First of all the AF department, but you know and matter only if you photograph subjects in moviemnto constantly. For occasional action shots or still subjects it does its own. And then missing all the knick-knacks, levers, buttons, functions, articulated screens, U1-U2, wifi, Bluetooth, etc. of more expensive models that make it less immediate, but precisely it is an entry level made to be essential. It is still paired with the AF-S 18-55 VR II which cannot fully stand up to its 24 Mp. 95% viewfinder.

Opinion: Do you like photogrfia? Do you like to take a relaxing walk and take home a couple of nice well-made photos? Are you a penniless person who wants to learn photography? Do you want to take home some nice photos from the trips without hanging up your luggage and without the anxiety of dragging around you expensive and without the wide angle of the mobile phone? She is the answer. You stick the Nikon 35mm 1.8 DX on it and challenge you to be able to leave the house without the temptation to put it in your backpack or shoulder strap under your coat. If you want to exaggerate the vices as well with the AF-P 10-20 VR and AF-P 70-300 VR DX. Taac and the Nikon DX Dream Team is done. Or it goes well, there are also af-P 18-55 VR to match if a* wants the "normal" zoom. Obviously if a* wants to make a specific photogrfia look elsewhere (FF for portraits, DX pro for photo hunting, etc.), as well as for videos. For everything else, that is the most spontaneous and relaxed photography there is her. 24 Mp are a bang and unless one finds the winning photo to print in A0 or to spend hours retouching on the PC, it goes to god with jpeg small basic (file + light -> less slam) if one progrmma well (for those who chew English I refer to his page on Ken Rockwell's site). I read about a lot of spec masturbators complaining about poor ISO tightness, but what do you want?! Either go and spend at least 3 times as much for a full frame or a mirrorless or go directly to buy a flash. At 12800 ISO it churns out photos at the height of any social or medium/small print. The autofocus and the viewfinder are the only two notes a bit sore: 11 focus points positioned very central leave you with your neck pulled. But everything that falls into those 11 points focuses on it perettametne and without hesitation, especially when combined with AF-P lenses. Even in low light the fire catches it, and this without even the auxiliary illumiantore. You will not be able to get enough of your friends who ask you for the photos of the last evening. The viewfinder is fine, it's small, but you know, and it's 95% (oh, even Full Frame semi-pro Nikon have comuqneu the coverage of the viewfinder at 95%) which does not help for the compositions, but after a while you either get used to it or you use the Live View for shots composed to the millimeter. Even for short videos on a tripod it does not fare badly, it certainly will not have the adjustable screen or the stabilized sensor, but unlike the D3400 and D3500 it has the jack socket for the microphone. In the second-hand market it is found below 200 euros. There are renowned photographers out there who have become who they are with only a simple and essential camera combined with a normal lens, because instead of making saws on the data or wanting to show off the latest model they focused on the photogrfia and what they have in their hands is just a tool, a link between their creativity and something tangible like a file or a print. I think this damn thing is a ticket to get on that road. Then it goes well, as mentioned above, for specific things one uses dedicated professional tools, for everything else there is that small cheap SLR that churns out embarrassingly beautiful photos.

Pros: Little weight, compactness, general organization of buttons/dial,cost

Cons: ISO Estate

Opinion: It's just been sold and I ended my adventure with the D3300. This machine has ferried me from the low levels of photography to a good level in a path of about a year and a half. In my opinion, if one makes the most of it, it can really take out photographs even higher than what you should actually get. It's an entry-level, yes, but it can go even a little further than its level. Obviously everything in my opinion. However I found myself very comfortable, little weight and footprint, good yield of focus and click, quick and silent. Perhaps what penalizes her the most is the ISO seal that from 800 and up begins to feel consistent phases. But let's not forget that it's an entry-level. I recommend it to all those who start with photography and want to have a machine not too expensive and heavy but at the same time with a good yield.
