This is a cheap camera but there is nothing cheap about its image quality. RAW files are excellent with consistently good white balance
Sharpness and tonality. High ISO images are remarkably noise free – at ISO 6400 noise is barely visible and easily rem
Very compact and lightweight body
Superb battery life – best in class by some margin
Good singleshot autofocus performance
Very compact and quiet AFP 1855mm f/3.55.6G VR kit lens
The Nikon D3400 delivers the image quality and speed that a first-time dSLR buyer should expect
The editors didn't like
The SnapBridge Bluetooth connectivity is no match for a full WiFi smartphonetocamera connection. It only transfers files from camera to phone and doesn't function as a wireless remote
LCD screen lacks touch operation and is somewhat reflective
Lacklustre kitlens performance at wide and telephoto ends
Poor connectivity options and connectivity performance
Unremarkable burst depth when shooting raw images
Currently not great value fo
A lot of the small annoyances from previous models remain
Including tiny autofocus points in the viewfinder and a nonpersistent self-timer mode. Plus
Its Bluetooth-only wireless solution isn't very good

Very compact and lightweight body, Superb battery life, Good single-shot AF performance, Easy to use, Very compact and quiet kit lens
No touchscreen, Poor connectivity options, No microphone port

Surprisingly light and compact for a DSLR, Bundled here with a smooth, quiet and powerful zoom lens, Easy to use and even comes with incamera prompts and tips, Good price point for an entrylevel DSLR, Long battery life at claimed 1,200 shots per charge
LCD monitor is fixed and not a touchscreen, No builtin wifi, Few preset scene modes to choose from, Video is 1080p, not 4K, Much is made of the Snapbridge cloud service, but we had issues when setting it up
