Olympus E-20 prices and specs
The E-20 was produced on Sep 13, 2001. For now the lowest price for the camera is $1,598.00
The E-20 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The Olympus E-20 has various automatic modes but you won't shoot photos of the same great quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The camera can take photos at 5 megapixels max resolution. But for better image quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This model has a 2/3' (8.8 x 6.6 mm) sensor. The camera with such sensor size is the optimal choice if you want to take photos of a good quality but don't want to use large DSLR cameras.
The Olympus E-20 has max shutter speed of 1/640 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but still the owner of the camera will be able to make photos of moving subjects. The lens is fixed and the camera owner can't change it. The lens provides 4x optical zoom.
