If you already own the D3500's predecessor, the D3400, this is not a worthwhile upgrade. There simply aren't enough improvements to justify the faff. Indeed, it's hard to name many DSLRs from which this would be a significant upgrade.

ISO controls are finicky; No audio-in jack; No manual/autofocus button

Purchased this package at Sam's Club on Memorial Day. Looked at all the package options and went with this one due to the overall value.

This D3500 Nikon camera takes great pictures. We have had several Nikon cameras over a period of the last 37 years. The lenses that came with it do a great job, even with the 70-300 lens the pictures were very sharp even in low light with no flash. The camera is very user friendly.

When Nikon announced the D3500, photographers complained that nothing had really changed from the D3400. (Akin to complaints when the D3400 had so many D3300 similarities.) I've now tested the D3500 extensively - and I disagree. It has its flaws, no doubt. But this camera is better than the D3400.
I do enjoy using this camera with the 18-55mm kit lens when I don't feel like carting all of my FF equipment around. However, there is one large annoyance: having to use a menu to change major settings, especially ISO! Also, the viewfinder could be a bit better.
Despite the growing popularity of mirrorless cameras, beginner DSLRs are still incredibly popular, and the D3500 is Nikon's latest entry-level offering in a competitive market.
Remarkable 1,550-shot battery life; Excellent image quality; Handy Guide mode; Compact proportions for a DSLR; Easy to use
No 4K video; No touchscreen control; Bluetooth; but no Wi-Fi
