TAIPEI, TAIWAN, April 23, 2008 – BenQ today unveils two upgrades to its popular C series digital camera lineup with the launch of the award-winning 7-megapixel BenQ C750 and 8-megapixel BenQ C850.  Both cameras feature an elegant front to back leather handle, Pentax lens, 3X optical zoom, Super-Shake-Free mode with high ISO supported, Smile Catch mode and video recording with optical zoom.  The C750 was recently awarded by Essen Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen – the international authority on product, concept and communication design – with a red dot honorable mention award for its innovative design, exceptional quality and high functionality.
