OREANDA-NEWS.  Nikon Corporation is pleased to announce the release of the D3400, an all-new entry-level DX-format digital SLR with easy connectivity to smart devices. From outfit-of-the-day portraits to edgy street photography or one-of-a-kind culinary experiences – the new Nikon D3400 easily captures these visual contents for instant sharing to social media.

As a digital SLR designed for aspiring photographers and users accustomed to shooting with their smart devices, the 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 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 is an entry-level model offering a number of enhancements over its predecessor, the D3300. The camera's ISO sensitivity has been expanded to ISO 100 - 25600 for capturing vibrant and clear pictures in low-light environments with less camera shake. Improved battery performance supports capture of approximately 1,200 shots with a fully charged battery. Equipped with Guide Mode, which provides step-by-step instructions, taking pictures and recording movies are easy, even for first-time users of a digital SLR camera. And, at approximately 395 g, the lighter camera body is especially handy for users constantly on the move.

The D3400 combines the superior power of NIKKOR lenses with an effective pixel count of 24.2-million pixels and the DX-format CMOS sensor with no optical low-pass filter, enhancing the users' experience of capturing and sharing quality images possible only with a digital SLR camera.
