Nikon D3400 entry-level DSLR unveiled

Nikon today officially announced the D3400, the company’s newest entry-level DSLR this will be the first entry-level DSLR with the company’s Snapbridge Software, an always-on Bluetooth Low Energy connection that lets the camera automatically transfer images to a user’s smartphone

D3400 is the first entry-level digital SLR enabled with SnapBridge connectivity. With the D3400’s built-in Bluetooth® low energy technology, it is easy to connect the camera and a smart device via the SnapBridge app. All photos*1 taken with the camera are automatically transferred to a smart device with simple, one-time setup. This eliminates the need to manually reconnect the camera to a smart device for each image transfer. The connection can be maintained even when the camera is turned off. Sharing images taken from your digital SLR onto social media has never been easier.

The D3400 will be a bit lighter than the D3300 was, which is impressive considering the D3300 was already 30 percent smaller and 25 percent lighter than the D3200. Nikon says the D3400 will weigh 395g,

The new camera uses the same 24.2-megapixel CMOS sensor found in the D3300, and it also has no low pass filter — a trend in recent years that has allowed camera makers to squeeze more detail out of their image sensors at the cost of making them more susceptible to moire. The camera also employs the same EXPEED 4 image processor found in the D3300. Snapbridge is a welcome addition, but considering the D3300 was announced over two years ago, it’s disappointing to see such a similar camera.

While the D3400 isn’t some big overhaul, some of the guts are getting upgrades. The top end of the ISO range is getting stretched to 25,600, and the battery will last almost twice as long as it did in the D3300 — up to 1,200 shots, according to Nikon.



The D3400 will be sold — in black or red — as a kit with Nikon’s new image-stabilized and quiet-focusing 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 lens, which was also announced at CES. That package will cost $649 when it goes on sale in September, but customers will also be able to buy a version of the kit with no image stabilization for about $50 less. Nikon is also announcing a new quiet-focusing 70-300mm f4.5-6.3 telephoto lens — also with or without image stabilization. The company says it will sell a D3400 kit with the image-stabilized 18-55mm and the nonimage-stabilized 70-300mm lens for $999.
