The Nikon D3500 is an entry-level 24.2-megapixel DX format DSLR Nikon F-mount camera announced by Nikon on August 30, 2018.[1] As of September 2018[update], the D3500 was available with two kits: with an 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens for $499.95[2] and a two lens kit (18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR and 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3G lenses) for $849.95.[3] It succeeded the Nikon D3400. In 2019, the D3500 won the TIPA Best DSLR Camera award.[4]
Following its decision in early 2021 to "archive" both the D3500 and D5600 in Japan while continuing to sell them elsewhere "for the time being",[5] Nikon announced in June 2022 that production of both models had ceased.[6]
The discontinuation was seen as heralding the end of the "beginner DSLR"[6] and Nikon did not release a direct successor to the D3500.[7]

[edit]The D3500 has the following features:
- 24.2-megapixel CMOS image sensor.
