Camera Overview — Nikon DL24-500

The Nikon DL24-500 is a point-and-shoot compact camera built around a 20MP, 1-inch sensor powered by the EXPEED 6A image processor. It covers an impressive zoom range and delivers image quality backed by optical image stabilization, keeping shots steady across the focal range. The ISO sensitivity runs from 160 to 12800, giving shooters meaningful flexibility in varying light conditions.

For stills, the camera is capable of up to 20fps burst shooting at a maximum resolution of 5568x3712 pixels, with color profile support for both sRGB and Adobe RGB. Video capture reaches 4K resolution with frame rate options spanning 24fps, 25fps, 30fps, 60fps, and 120fps at 8-bit color depth. The autofocus system combines 105 phase-detect and 171 contrast-detect points, with subject tracking enabled.

Composing shots is aided by a 3-inch OLED touchscreen tilting display at 1037k dots resolution, complemented by an electronic OLED viewfinder resolving 2359k dots. Connectivity is well-covered with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a 3.5mm microphone jack, Micro HDMI output, and a standard ISO hot shoe for external flash. Storage uses SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards, and the EN-EL20a battery is rated for approximately 290 shots per charge.
