Key Advantages

The Nikon D3400 offers excellent image resolution with its 24.2-megapixel sensor, delivering sharp and vibrant photos. The EXPEED 4 processor ensures fast image processing and superior noise reduction. Its lightweight and compact design make it convenient for travel and day-to-day shooting. SnapBridge technology allows effortless wireless sharing and remote control via a smartphone. The camera provides easy-to-use controls suitable for beginners while still offering manual modes for greater creative control. Long battery life supports extended shooting sessions without frequent recharging.

Limitations

Despite its benefits, the Nikon D3400 lacks a built-in autofocus motor requiring lenses with built-in motors for autofocus functionality. It does not have a touch screen or an articulated LCD, limiting viewing angles and interaction. The fixed rear LCD is relatively basic with 921,000 dots, which may be less clear in bright sunlight. It does not offer 4K video recording, limiting video resolution compared to more modern models. The camera’s burst rate of 5fps may be insufficient for fast-action photography. Finally, the presence of only 11 autofocus points is limited compared to higher-end models with more sophisticated focusing systems.
