I'm still playing with my Nikon D5000. It has some features that are unique to it's design and I enjoy using those.
I just bought a dealer demo on line — Nikon D3400. It's got twice the pixel count than my D5000 and I want to see if there's any real difference.
The D3400 had 641 clicks that I verified, compared to the 64,000+ on my D5000 that I've had a good 8 years or so.
I paid about $270 for the D3400 from a dealer, which is the lowest price I've seen anywhere on line (through Amazon).
In looking through the D3400 manual, I noticed a whole bunch of photo tricks you can perform in camera that would normally have to be accomplished in post. I'd like to try some of those, too.
I have a studio photo shoot with a model tomorrow and I'll post a couple of images with the same lens/different body for comparison and if you'll please let me know what you all think, I'd appreciate the feedback.
Also, please let me know if any of you own a D3400 and what your experience has been.
Thanks.

I’ve owned one for about 10 months. Great technology packed into an entry level camera. Having a lot of fun learning about everything it will do. I am amazed at the results I am getting on my shoots.

I always seem to be a generation or two behind as my kids were too dumb to get full rides to college, and too smart not to go.
My newest camera is the EM-1 1.0, and I still use Nikons D300s and DX2.
I’ve got no complaints.
Anyone else out there using older kit? Not film, doesn’t count.


I'm still using my D3s for low-light, because it is still an incredible camera. Nothing else from Nikon can match this.

The older cameras still are great to use as long as we do not expect them to perform like the new ones. If they produced great images back then they still do that today. Also a lot of fun to use along with the wonderful technology that we have today. I still like to get out the D50 every so often. 6.1mp and 1600 max ISO makes you think a little before shooting away.
