DSLR-style control and dual viewing systems
Nikon has applied the know-how and technology of its legendary DSLR cameras to the DL series.

Focal length can be set in steps or adjusted fluidly across the zoom range with the lens' precision zoom ring, while the control ring allows for precise adjustments of aperture, shutter speed, manual focus or even white balance. For composing shots, the DL24-500 f/2.8-5.6 has two viewing systems: a Vari-angle touchscreen display and an Eye-Level Electronic Viewfinder. Both are high resolution OLED screens that provide brilliant views. DSLR shooters can seamlessly move between DL24-500 f/2.8-5.6 and a DSLR, while newcomers will discover the ease of using a camera with the intuitiveness and feel of a DSLR.
