This is the key view from which to differentiate the two cameras. The DL18-50 (bottom) is the higher-end model: you can tell because it incorporates Nikon's Nano Crystal Coat on the lens and lacks a flash, while the DL24-85 (top) has a Super Macro mode that lets you capture actual-size photos. While you'd think that would be a nice feature for the higher-end model, 1:1 capture in general requires a narrower angle-of-view lens than the DL18-50 has.
