The Kodak EasyShare P850 Zoom is part
of Kodak's new "Performance Series."
Targeted to the serious and advanced amateur photographers,
the Kodak P850 features 5.1MP resolution; a 12X
professional-quality SCHNEIDER-KREUZNACH VARIOGON
Optical Zoom Lens with image stabilization; the
ability to save images in the RAW file format;
live histogram in record mode; and full exposure
flexibility.
It sports an extra large 2.5 in. LCD monitor
and a high resolution electronic viewfinder (EVF).
You can get as close as 10 cm (3.9 in.) to your
subject for macro photography.
Movies are captured at 640 × 480 pixels
at 30 fps, with the capability to zoom during
movie capture and image stabilization to prevent
jitters. Shutter speed rages from 1/2 sec. to
1/1000 sec. in Auto mode with the ability to go
as slow as 16 sec. in Manual mode. It has a hot
shoe flash connector and accepts the optional
P20 Zoom Flash.
The Kodak EasyShare P850 will appeal to
serious and advanced amateur photographers who
desire a long zoom digital camera with image stabilization
and full exposure flexibility -- and as easy-to-use
as Kodak EasyShare digital cameras have earned
the reputation to be.
If you'd rather have a true wide-angle lens coverage
instead of a long zoom, check out the Kodak
EasyShare P880 with a 24mm wide-angle
lens, 5.8x optical zoom, and blazingly fast 1/4000
sec. shutter speed.
