Description:
The 6.1-megapixel Kodak EasyShare Z650 digital camera offers aspiring
photographers exceptional performance and greater photographic control through
its professional-quality Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon 10x optical zoom lens,
helping capture detail from afar and flattering portraits.
10x optical zoom gets you close to the action without compromising image
quality.
As with the entire line of EasyShare Z-Series cameras, the Z650 delivers more
advanced control when necessary and simplicity of operation for everyday
situations. Although the new Z650 has an impressive resolution, it also
demystifies the idea that megapixels are the only standard of measurement when
buying digital cameras. By adding advanced features like 10x optical zoom and a
live histogram, Kodak has raised the bar by providing photographers with the
tools to create high-quality photos, enhancing their overall digital photography
experience.
Exclusive Kodak Color Science Image Processing Chip
The exclusive Kodak Color Science image processing chip results in portraits
with edge-to-edge sharpness and brightness, rich color, accurate skin tones, and
highly accurate exposure.
The exclusive Kodak Color Science Image Processing Chip delivers superior
image quality for pictures that come to life just the way you remember it.
A new high-speed digital processor chip, advanced algorithms, and hardware
acceleration features let the Z650 make simultaneous, split-second decisions to
produce rich, vibrant, true-to-life colors in almost any lighting situation.
Each time you click the shutter, the Kodak Color Science Chip performs an
instantaneous and advanced analysis of collected scene data to identify and
adjust multiple factors that influence picture quality.
Scene light source is detected and adjustments are made to capture bright
whites and true, vivid colors under difficult lighting conditions--fluorescent,
tungsten, or daylight.
Scene content is analyzed for luminance, focal distance, subject matter
orientation, and color to determine the correct exposure and capture the natural
details, accurate flesh tones, and rich colors you see in your composition.

Making the EasyShare System Connection
Z-Series camera owners can quickly print Kodak 4-by-6-inch pictures at home with
just one touch in as little as 60 seconds using the Kodak EasyShare Printer Dock
Plus Series 3. (Printer dock not included--must be purchased separately.) The
Printer Dock Series 3 also transfers pictures to a connected computer and
recharges and reconditions the camera's batteries. Pictures made from EasyShare
printer docks are vibrant, borderless, and waterproof, and they'll last a
lifetime, under typical photo album display conditions.
The Z-Series cameras include new Kodak EasyShare software version 5.2 for
Windows and Macintosh systems, providing effortless digital picture
organization, editing, sharing, and printing. The exclusive One Touch to Better
Pictures feature takes advantage of proprietary color technologies developed by
Kodak to help users get vibrant, true-to-life prints from inkjet printers.
Version 5.2, which is available for free download from the Kodak website, also
makes sharing your favorite pictures as simple as possible, automatically
placing them in albums on your camera, on your computer, and in your online
Kodak EasyShare Gallery albums.
