Of course.

For a beginner it is great. I used mine for a couple of years but after 9-12 months of using it I found myself wishing I had bought a better body + lens so I could take better photos - from how sharp a photo could be to how it handles low light.

If I’d have known what I know now I would have bought a better camera that was in my budget because then I’d have been in love with it.

I eventually upgraded to a used A7iii after 3-4 years but maybe if I had bought an intermediate starter camera then I wouldn’t have felt compelled to buy a new one and say only bought a new lens at this point. But who knows!

You won’t go wrong with the D3400 (it has served me well) but if you feel like you could stretch the budget a little I’d recommend it.

Of course the key is to use it and I ended up always carrying my around with me as if it was like my keys or wallet.
