Pentax Optio M20 prices and specs
The Pentax Optio M20 was released on Aug 21, 2006 and is available in USA for 377.77.
The Pentax Optio M20 is a point and shoot camera. Its main advantage is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Pentax Optio M20 has different automatic modes but you won't make pictures of the same great quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The Optio M20 can make photos at 7 megapixels highest resolution. But for better photo quality the more important thing is a sensor size. The Optio M20 has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the camera will take photos with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Optio M20 has small dimensions and weight. But if you want to take photos of the professional quality check Sony Alpha 7R II.
The Pentax Optio M20 has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for shooting action photos of a satisfactory quality. The Optio M20 can even capture videos but the max resolution is not very high - 640 x 480.
The lens is built into the Optio M20 and you won't be able to switch it. The lens has low 3x optical zoom.
