Excellent cameras, love it.

Love the size of the camera and the quality of the pictures. It is not heavy and easy to carry around especially while travelling. We have the option to download to download SnapBridge to your smartphone which connects with the Nikon camera and it is easy to download the photos onto your phone within minutes. Highly recommend this camera for the affordable price.

Purchased in July 2021 at JB Hi-Fi for $483.00.

Click perfection

published

Small and compact DSLR with the power of a full sized unit, fairly easy to use and an affordable accessory range that won't break the budget. The Nikon D3400 has everything you need to make good pictures amazing. High res movie and pictures, quick and simple lens changes, a wide range of settings and easily programmable. A perfect entry lever DSLR.

Excellent purchase

published

Bought this with 18-55mm lens kit at Good Guys over a year ago. Great all round camera. Bought it because I am an amateur astronomer and it was recommended on astro-photography websites. I have a 127mm Maksutov Cassegrain telescope and attach the camera via a T-ring Nikon adapter for prime-focus DSLR photos. Ie the telescope is actually the camera lens. Excellent photos of moon including recent lunar eclipse.

Excellent

published

Bought it in February, quite a decent nikon camera at decent price. Good battery life, 2 different lenses comes with it. Better than canon for sure. Potrait lense is remarkably well. Easy to use, connect via wifi or Bluetooth to android devices or ios devices. Deep focused lenses. 4 star in my view.

Perfect for Beginners - Highly Recommended

published

Bought this camera in October at Jbhifi. (Got a $100 store credit as Bonus).
A great camera for beginners. Excellent quality images. Light weight. Good Battery.
Happy with the product and yes I recommend this product for the starters.
In my opinion Nikon D3400 is pretty good when compared with other mirror less cameras at this price point.

Great image quality. Super lightweight.

published

My new favourite dslr. As good as my D7200 and nearly half the weight. Perfect for travelling, no compromise on iq. Full control over imaging and basic in camera RAW manipulation. Purchased at JB hifi. Incredible vfm and 100 buck store card with purchase. There is no need to go mirror less with cameras like this around and at considerably less cost.

Good lightweight camera

published

This is my third dslr.
I love the feel of this thing. It's not too heavy. The processor seems quick enough. I spoke with a photography guru that advised this is really the highest camera I need. Spend more money and the more expensive cameras are too high in resolution. Plus the weigh heaps more.
The snap dragon sending photos to my phone actually works really well.
Love it

The perfect Nikon for the beginner or advanced

published

I'd been wanting a Nikon since I was a young photographer with a black and white film camera. I bought this Nikon with the 18-55mm lens kit from JB HiFI and I've been so impressed with the functionality, ease of use and high quality photos. You can sync the camera with SnapBridge, which downloads your photos automatically to the app, then allows editing. The menu functions are clear and you can choose to be walked through steps or go it alone. I absolutely love this camera, so glad I took the plunge!

Good value camera for beginners

published

I bought this 24 megapixel camera with a 18-55mm lens kit included at a very good price on sale at Good Guys, it is very easy to use and produces great quality photos. I have since purchased a 55-200mm lens which allows me to zoom in and take great pics. There is an app (SnapBridge) which you can install on your smartphone and the camera can send pics to your phone via bluetooth, this is great if you want to upload a photo to facebook right away. I am very happy with my purchase.

Good for beginners

published

It's a very good DSLR for starters. I have got it almost brand new (in the sealed pack) and using since 4 months. Pretty reliable had no issue so far. Shutter speed is fairly enough. The really high range of iso. Guide section is really easy to use and helpful. Battery lasts for days (at least for me) Night shots are ok, not good.

Wonderful camera

published

I love this camera. The picture quality is outstanding and it is just so easy to use.
It makes me feel like a professional. The two lenses give me so much scope for all kinds of scenarios. I am looking forward to buying some filters and really experiment. I couldn't be happier.

Really high range of iso. Guide section is really easy to use and helpful. Battery lasts for days (at least for me) Night shots are ok not good. If you buy it for snapbridge.. dont! its horrible to connect. you cant view what you are capturing or use remote control via your smart device like in gopro.

Questions & Answers

Does this have a sensor cleaning action and does it need a special lens for it to work?

The D3400 does not have automatic sensor cleaning like the more expensive Nikon DSLR models. But sensors can be cleaned manually using an air bulb or lens brush using the 'lock up mirror for cleaning' option. You actually clean the protective film which covers the sensor, not the sensor itself, so you cannot damage the sensor. You can check for sensor dust by taking a hi-res photo of a completely white background ( eg a sheet of paper). Sensor dust is indicated by spots in the photo. Don't waste time cleaning if you don't see any spots. Of course prevention is better than cure so always ensure you have a lens or lens cover in place to prevent dust from entering, and avoid changing lenses in a dusty environment,
