The Kodak EasyShare P850 is part of Kodak's new performance series which includes the P850 and P880. They were both Introduced in September 2005. The new series is marketed to be between a full DSLR and a compact camera. You can't change the lens on this camera but you can add both a wide lens and a telephoto lens by using an adaptor.
