The Kodak P850 is part of Kodaks new performance series which includes the P850 and P880. They were both Introduced in September 2005.

"Engineered to satisfy your uncompromising creative demands."

This is what Kodak says on their website and I do agree with this, it takes great photos with very crisp colours and the 12x optical zoom is indeed very good.
