From the Manufacturer

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.
