Pros: Weight, grip, ease of use, autofocus

Cons: No special button for ISO, high ISO performance, fixed LCD screen

Opinion: Many underestimate it as entry-level, but I have to say that it is not bad at all. It was my first purchase in the photography field last summer and I have to say that I'm still excited about it: I still use it, even after the purchase of my Sony A7s. I sold the 18-55mm for the Sigma 18-35mm 1.8, and together they churn out stunning photos in street focals (27-50mm equivalent). Coupled with 50mm 1.8G gives me some great portraits. I always use it at ISO maximum 320, no more because obviously for the price you can not expect who knows what sensor... then takes over the sony A7s which is a monster in the high ISO field. Basically, for me used at low ISO, RAW format and with the right optics, it is a very usable and nice machine to use. Recommended

Pros: Ergonomics and weight

Cons: ISO purely automated, lack of infrared for remote control

Opinion: After a technical problem with my d3300 I had to pass even (if for only 48h) to the new d3500 and, at the very first impact I was very excited to have it in my hands. From an aesthetic point of view the strengths of this machine are the weight, the dimensions but above all with a scream grip. Unfortunately, but it's not all gold that glits and for a photographer enthusiast like me, accustomed to shoot only in manual, discover that the ISO management is purely automatic is really a blow to the heart.. In the long run the having to offset each time the look from the viewfinder to change the ISO setting through the menu as well as being frustrating is a waste of time that can cost moments, actions and important situations during a photo shooting. Another bitter discovery was the lack of infrared replaced by the APP dedicated via Bluetooth connection with the phone... A choice that still can not explain to me by Nikon since the app still has many gaps... Personally I would not recommend for those who like me has turned to the art of photography with the intent to learn the best shutter release and wants to have a full, quick and fast control of your room without compromises.

Pros: Weight, intuition and good stability

Cons: Automatic Iso control not satisfactory

Opinion: For my humble opinion, the first uses and the first photos taken with this new camera of Nikon, I look good. I do not do text, as this is my first SLR I use, purchased with dual lens AF DX 18--55 VR (already by default) and with a zoom AF-DX 70-300. First I used a Bridge, always the Nikon. The sensor seems good, at night I can play better ISO without fear of the slightest noise, attention to the use of automatic ISO, I think too strong on some situations of shooting, so it is better to regulate it yourself, depending on what we are Taking. In the future with more use I will be more precise. Excellent weight and also stability is very good, even with a 70-300. The details definitely are better than the B700 I had before, though obvious... it's not a 850. Optimum focus and it also seems quick to memorize the image, giving me the possibility of being able to intervene immediately in the shot following the change of time or diaphragm, working purely in manual. Very good value for money

Pros: Ergonomics, ease of use, size and weight.

Cons: Limits in the use of old AF lenses.

Opinion: Excellent camera in relation to the price, it holds very well, is intuitive and easy to use, the sensor has improved little compared to the d3400 but the standard lens 18-55mm AF-P is better than the previous ones both as definition and as noiselessness and speed of setting Fire. A nice little toy. Too bad that with the old AF lenses you lose all the automatisms.
