The Optio A20 is ideal for getting your feet wet in digital photography, without skimping on power or features. The Auto Picture mode automates the camera setup when shooting still images, allowing even digital camera novices to enjoy picture taking effortlessly. A single button automatically sets the exposure, sensitivity, white balance, and other parameters according to conditions.
The A20's generous 2.5-inch LCD offers an LCD Bright Mode that adjusts the brightness of the screen as necessary for the viewing conditions. The Shake Reduction mode reduces blur in both still image and video capture. With 10 effective megapixels, it delivers outstanding pictures using its 3X optical zoom lens, 4X digital. Your ISO sensitivity reaches up to 1600, and produces high-quality prints with crisp detail even when greatly enlarged.
Even in dark locations such as indoor and night scenes, the Optio A20 effectively reduces subject blurring when the subject moves. The rugged aluminum housing is the perfect package for the power and functionality of the Optio A20!
