Setting the zoom level for a MKMapView

Question

I have a map which shows correctly, the only thing I want to do now is set the zoom level when it loads. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks

A simple Swift implementation, if you use outlets.

@IBOutlet weak var mapView: MKMapView! {
    didSet {
        let noLocation = CLLocationCoordinate2D()
        let viewRegion = MKCoordinateRegionMakeWithDistance(noLocation, 500, 500)
        self.mapView.setRegion(viewRegion, animated: false)
    }
}

Based on @Carnal's answer.
