Setup, Compatibility & Care

To start using your D3500, insert a charged EN-EL14a battery into the base and insert a compatible SD, SDHC, or SDXC memory card into the side slot. The camera utilizes the Nikon F-mount, allowing for compatibility with a vast ecosystem of DX and FX-format lenses.

For maintenance, ensure the sensor remains clean by using the built-in anti-dust function. Keep the lens glass protected with a 55mm filter and use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Always turn the camera off before changing lenses to prevent dust from entering the sensor chamber. If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery to prevent leakage and store the device in a cool, dry environment.
