About the Olympus FE-20 (C-25)
The Olympus FE-20 (C-25), released in August 2008, is a lightweight compact with a 1/2.35-type CCD of about 8 effective megapixels. Its lens is a 3x optical zoom at F3.1-5.9, equal to 36-108 mm, running from a normal view to a moderate telephoto.
What stands out is the weight of about 128 g, in a body of 96 x 57 x 22 mm. The screen is 2.5 inches. Images are saved on xD-Picture Cards rather than SD, so having a compatible card is part of the setup, and the LI-42B lithium-ion battery supplies power with a charger in the original package. The design puts weight first, with a modest 3x zoom Check the listed figures against the camera in hand, since the lens range, screen size and card type all affect everyday handling.
Buying one used
Recording uses xD-Picture Cards, so first make sure you have a card the camera accepts. The battery is the LI-42B; check for wear and a charger. Test the lens movement and inspect the 2.5-inch screen.
