Key Advantages

The Nikon D3400 boasts a high-resolution 24.2 MP CMOS sensor delivering sharp and detailed images. Its EXPEED 4 processor ensures fast image processing and efficient noise reduction. The built-in Bluetooth SnapBridge provides convenient and continuous wireless image transfer. The camera features an easy-to-use interface, ideal for beginners stepping into DSLR photography. Long battery life supports extended shooting sessions without frequent recharging. Compatibility with a wide range of Nikon lenses offers versatility across photographic styles.

Limitations

The Nikon D3400 lacks a touchscreen, which may limit intuitive menu navigation. It does not have a built-in flash hot shoe for external flash units. The ISO performance at extremely high values can produce noticeable noise compared to higher-end models. The autofocus system, while effective, has only 11 points, which is limited for fast action photography. Video recording does not support 4K resolution, restricting high-end videography. The LCD screen is fixed and does not offer articulation, limiting shooting from unconventional angles.
