42x optical zoom and highly advanced VR image stabilization
A 16.1 megapixel Back-illuminated CMOS image sensor is paired with a 42x zoom NIKKOR ED glass lens that covers the phenomenal focal range of 24 mm wide-angle to 1000 mm super-telephoto*. Newly advanced Lens-shift VR image stabilization compensates more effectively than ever** for camera shake. This serves as a big aid in achieving consistently sharp results, particularly when taking advantage of the super-zoom or shooting macros.

Optimized controls and designed for efficient handling
The 7.5-cm (3-in.) vari-angle 921k-dot (approx.) high-resolution Clear color display can be tilted as much as 90 degrees (approx.) upward or 82 degrees (approx.) downward. You can assign often-used functions to the new Function button for quick one-touch access. The handgrip is designed to help minimize camera shake. And the body includes a side zoom control for stable handling.
High-speed continuous shooting helps capture all the action

Other high-speed modes include Sports continuous mode (approx. 60fps/120fps) and the Pre-shooting cache.
