Pentax Optio A20 prices and specs
The Optio A20 was released on Aug 21, 2006. For now the lowest price for the camera is 59.95
The Optio A20 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main benefit is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Optio A20 is equipped with different automatic modes but you won't get pictures of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The camera can shoot images at 10 megapixels max resolution. But for better picture quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the model will make images with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has smaller dimensions and weight. But if you want to capture images of the professional quality check Leica M Edition 60.
The Optio A20 has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that will be enough for taking action images of a very good quality. The camera can even record videos but the max resolution is not very high - 640 x 480.
The lens is built into the camera and the camera owner can't switch it. The lens provides weak 3x optical zoom.
