Nikon D3500 vs Fujifilm X100V

Moving to ISO 12800 we see noise tick up above 1.5 percent, and we also see details drop precipitiously. You can set the camera as high as ISO 25600, but I wouldn't recommend it when shooting in JPG format—images are blurry and show very little fine detail.

The x100 V resolves almost all of this, while adding more. Besides, the redesign lens now delivers, satisfyingly crisp results near and far the screen...

Unfortunately, its autofocus system is very basic, with only 11 detection points. It's not especially reliable when it comes to face or object tracking. Also, it isn't the best option if you're interested in recording video since it can't record in 4k, and its FHD video quality is mediocre overall. Despite that, it's still one of the best cameras to start photography with, and most beginners will be happy with it

Its autofocus system does a reasonably good job tracking moving faces and objects, though it can sometimes lose track of fast-moving subjects.

Get the Canon if you want 4k video capability and a fully articulated touchscreen, but if you're new to DSLRs, the Nikon is a great alternative budget option.

Although the camera has a high-speed recording mode that shoots slow-motion footage at 120 fps, it's unfortunately only available in 1080p. The camera also lacks any stabilization feature, though the short focal length of its built-in lens means you can still get usable footage out of it if you don't want to use a tripod or gimbal. That said, the fixed focal length can also be a drawback if you prefer to shoot video with a zoom lens. All in all, though, this makes for a surprisingly good hybrid camera, especially for travel or less advanced video work

it sucked lol. Using a D3500 with a nikon 17-55 2.8 lens. I couldnt auto-focus on anything because it was so dark, and the lens wasnt letting me manually focus! I switched it to M instead of MA on the lens but when I was spinning the dial it wasn't focusing, I was trying to make it infinty focus

It's always present always doing its thing. It looks great but be forewarned if you shoot RAW and then use third-party software other than the Fujifil...

and, they even managed to screw everything up by going to a 55mm filter. After a hundred and 57 years of 52 mm filters this kit 18-55 zoom requires a 55mm filter. and then there's The annoyance of the constant reminder that you need to extend the lens first before you can start shooting.

If you need, it also has a digital zoom function that can simulate focal lengths of 50 or 70mm. The lens also has a built-in ND filter to help you shoot at slow shutter speeds or wide apertures in bright environments. Its effective autofocus system, combined with its relatively fast max shooting speed of 10 fps, should also help in capturing clear photos of moving subjects.

To be honest, the only reason why I bought this was because all modern digital cameras lack the manual control functionalities of the camera. Nowadays, everything is "automatically" managed by the computer within the camera which, in most cases, ruins the pictures. I am so glad that I made the switch to this camera! It does everything that my other cameras does not do! It allows me to manually adjust the focus, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, white balance, and so much more! I will admit that the camera can be a bit "much" to those who are new to the DSLR universe, but I will say that after you play with the camera for a while, you will know all of the menus, options and their locations like a pro! What I love about this camera is that you have the ability to switch out the stock lens for a macro lens (those insane close up photos) or for a telephoto lens (for those far distant pictures) if you choose! For me, personally, the stock lens does more than enough, but if I have the urge to buy one of the other lenses, I can do that because the camera is made for expand-ability! Contrary to what others may say, personally, I believe that the JPEG images are super clean and crisp. While you are not supposed to use JPEGs for post-production, I believe you can get away with some minor post with these files

You know for years manufacturers been telling us that you cannot have a tilt screen on small cameras, because they're gon na be either too bulky or it...
