The Kodak EasyShare M853 combines an
eight megapixel CCD imager and a Kodak-branded 3x optical zoom lens
with a fairly standard 37 - 111mm equivalent focal range. For
framing images, there's a 2.5" 154K pixel LCD display but like many
current models, the M853 has no optical viewfinder. Images are
stored on Secure Digital / MultiMediaCards, or in 16MB of internal
memory.

The Kodak M853 has 17 scene modes to
help beginners achieve the results they're looking for without the
need to understand subtleties like shutter speeds, apertures and the
like. Scene modes provided are: portrait, sports, landscape,
children, night portrait, beach, snow, fireworks, self portrait,
backlight, night landscape, text/document, manner/museum, flower,
sunset, panorama, and candlelight. Additional shooting modes include
auto, video, Favorites, digital IS, high ISO, and close-up.
The M853 determines exposures with a
center-weighted TTL metering system, and offers 2.0EV of exposure
compensation in 1/3EV increments. Five white balance settings are
available including an auto mode, and ISO sensitivity is controlled
automatically ranging from 80 to 800, or manually up to 1,250. The
EasyShare M853 also offers a movie mode, capturing VGA (640x480)
clips at 15 fps, or QVGA (320x240) clips at 30 fps, both with audio.
Movies are encoded in QuickTime MPEG4 format.
Images and movies captured on the
Kodak M853 are transferred to your computer over a USB 2.0 Full
Speed connection. Power comes from a custom KLIC-7001 Lithium-Ion
rechargeable battery, and features in-camera charging via USB cable.
