About the Pentax Optio E20
The Pentax Optio E20 was released in September 2006. Its lens covers 34-102 mm in 35 mm terms, a 3x optical zoom at F2.8-4.8, starting at a fairly wide 34 mm. It sits in front of a 1/2.5-type CCD of about 6.0 megapixels.
The body measures 90x63x32 mm and weighs 180 g, with a 2.4-inch LCD on the back. Two AA batteries power it, with NiMH recommended, so it does not depend on a dedicated battery pack, and images are saved to SD cards. The 32 mm depth gives the body some thickness to hold on to, which makes it comfortable for relaxed everyday shooting. It is a straightforward camera for people who want simple operation with batteries that are easy to replace.
Buying one used
It takes two AA batteries, with NiMH recommended, and records to SD cards. Check lens movement, the 2.4-inch LCD and the condition of the battery compartment contacts before buying.
