Canon PowerShot S20 prices and specs
The PowerShot S20 was produced on Jan 6, 2000. For now the cheapest price for the camera is 32.95.
The PowerShot S20 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The PowerShot S20 is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't capture photographs of the same high quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The device can make pictures at 3 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better image quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This model has a 1/1.8' (7.144 x 5.358 mm) sensor which means that the PowerShot S20 will take pictures with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it is more portable. But if you want to make pictures of the best quality check Leica M-P (Typ 240).
The PowerShot S20 has max shutter speed of 1/1000 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but anyway you will be able to shoot pictures of moving objects. The lens is fixed and the camera owner can't change it. The lens has weak 2x optical zoom.
