Pentax Optio VS20 prices and specs
The Optio VS20 was produced on Jan 25, 2012. For now the lowest price for the camera is 99.99
The Optio VS20 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The camera is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't get photos of the same high quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The device can take images at 16 megapixels max resolution. But for better picture quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.33' (6.08 x 4.56 mm) sensor which means that the Optio VS20 will shoot images with not so high quality as cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Optio VS20 is small. But if you want to produce images of the professional quality pay attention to Leica M Edition 60.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/2500 sec. It is an average shutter speed which will be enough for taking action images of a satisfactory quality. The camera owner will be able to produce HD videos that guarantees a rather high picture quality.
The lens is fixed and the camera owner can't switch it. The lens has amazing 20x optical zoom.
