With a 5X zoom lens, 8.0 megapixels, and a generous 3.0 inch LCD monitor, the ultra-slim and stylish PENTAX Optio V20 makes it easy to capture and to view images. Three innovative features on the Optio V20 help users optimize portrait photographs. Face Recognition automatically detects and focuses on faces, then sets the optimum exposure. Smile Capture detects smiles and releases the shutter automatically, while Blink Detection reports whether any subjects closed their eyes in an image, so that the shot may be recaptured if necessary. Additional features include Auto-tracking AF, 52MB of built-in memory, and an Auto-Macro mode that allows close-up photography.
