Many people use smartphones to capture memories these days, but those who want to get more serious about photography will likely look to a compact camera or DSLR. Nikon's new D3500 is both compact and a DSLR, making for a relatively inexpensive step up from tiny sensor phone cameras.

​It began with some chatter about a new full-frame mirrorless camera from Nikon, followed by a few shadowy glimpses and then confirmation that the company intended to release not one, but two models. Now Nikon has confirmed a September release for the Z 7, followed by the Z 6 in November.​

After months of online chatter, Nikon has confirmed that it's developing a full-frame mirrorless camera. Though yet to be named and priced, the FX format camera will make use of a new lens mount but still be compatible with F-Mount lenses via an adapter.

​Back in 2015, Nikon revealed a bridge camera boasting a whopping 83x optical zoom lens – the Coolpix P900. Now the company has announced a new flavor, the P1000, which (ahem) zooms past its predecessor's telephoto capabilities to bring far-flung objects into sharp focus with its 125x optics.​

Nikon is about to unleash its latest high resolution full-frame DSLR, the D850. As well as boasting a monstrous 47.5 megapixel count, the prosumer camera is also a quick snapper, features 153-point AF, can handle 4K video, and promises long battery life.

Sony has high-end DSLRs in its sights with the A9 mirrorless camera. But how does the new shooter stack up against the sort of cameras typically wielded by professional news and sports photographers? Here we compare the key features and specs of the A9 with Nikon’s D5 flagship.

When a camera like the enthusiast-level D7200 is due to be retired, the young upstart of a successor had better be nothing short of impressive. Nikon looks to have pulled out all the stops to give its D7500 a fighting chance, dipping liberally into the feature set of the APS-C flagship, the D500.​

Nikon has (almost) been around for 100 years, and it's pulling out all the stops to celebrate. Along with a set of commemorative trinkets, like neck straps and crystal cameras, the imaging and optics company has designed limited edition versions of its flagship cameras, lenses and binoculars.

​Every year science and art collide in the Nikon Small World in Motion Photomicrography Competition. This year's top three winners include hypnotic water patterns made by an eight-week-old starfish larva, a predatory ciliate stretching its rubbery neck to gobble up prey, and a blooming fungus.

Not all DSLR shooters need, or want, full frame sensors in their camera. For many, a crop sensor is plenty, and the latest generation of APS-C DSLRs offer enough power and performance to keep enthusiast and professional photographers happy. Here New Atlas looks at the best APS-C DSLRs of 2016.

While they are facing increasing competition from mirrorless cameras, traditional DSLRs still have a lot to offer photographers looking to up their game. Here we look at 6 of the best DSLR cameras for beginner photographers.

Nikon has announced the new mid-range D5600 DSLR. A follow-up to the D5500, the new APS-C shooter is a modest upgrade which adds features including Nikon’s constant SnapBridge connectivity and a number of user interface tweaks.
