BenQ has announced what it claims to be the “world’s thinnest 8MP camera,” the T850.  Packing 1600 ISO, a 3x optical zoom and smc PENTAX lens, the T850 measures in at 14.9mm deep, and sports a red or black stainless steel chassis.

The company appears to have followed the latest trends of cellular phones, as the camera offers a touchscreen with response to features such as tap, circle, and swipe. Surprisingly, despite the size, the camera still packs most of BenQ’s latest features - “Smile Catch”, Auto Face Tracking, Z Lighting, advanced photo art and ”scribble & scrawl” on-device editing, giving users the ability to write and edit pictures without a computer.

The camera will be available in China and select parts of Asia and Europe later in the month.  Click through for a picture gallery.
