N-Photo: the Nikon magazine

Ask Matthew…

Q I live by a lake and shoot lots of landscapes and bird life. What Nikon DSLR and lenses would you recommend for $500?

I’m afraid there are no Nikon DSLR with lenses at that price that will suit your needs. The best I could suggest would be a Nikon D3500 DSLR kit with an AF-P 18-55mm VR lens at £449/$497, plus an additional Nikon AF-P DX 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3G
