Pentax Optio T20 News Release Summary:
GOLDEN, CO. (September 13, 2006) PENTAX Imaging Company
announced the new PENTAX Optio T20 compact digital camera
featuring an extremely slim body. Incorporating the PENTAX-developed
Sliding Lens System and an impressive 3.0 inch, high-definition
LCD monitor, the Optio T20 is the thinnest digital camera in
this class. Featuring 7.0 megapixels and a 3X zoom, the latest
model in the PENTAX T series allows users to select and confirm
functions directly on the LCD monitor with just a touch or with
a stylus. The 3.0 inch display allows users to easily view and
decorate images with drawings, stamps, picture frames and more.
With the 3.0 inch touch-display, the Optio T20 allows users to
simply touch, shoot and enjoy.
Easy-to-share 3.0 inch oversized LCD monitor
The Optio T20 hosts a large 3.0 inch LCD monitor with 230,000
pixels for exceptional clarity and definition for reviewing
images and menu text. With a wide viewing field, the screen
remains easy-to-see when viewed from an angle or straight on.
This is helpful when monitoring shots at low or high angles or
when displaying images in a group setting. The Optio T20
features an extra-large 3.0 inch LCD monitor made possible by
the PENTAX Sliding Lens System* and high-density mounting
technology.
*PENTAX's proprietary lens system: The central lens group slides
upward from the optical axis and the front and back lens groups
slip under them. Housing the lens in two steps in the lens
cylinder reduces overall lens thickness, thereby minimizing body
depth.
Extremely slim body
With a slim body only 0.77 inch thick (19.5mm), the Optio T20 is
the thinnest in this digital camera class.
Touch display makes operations simple and enjoyable
The Optio T20's touch display allows users to select and confirm
functions by directly touching the LCD monitor. Easy operation
of the screen allows users to access icons from the displayed
menu with a simple touch.
Excellent image quality
Upgraded to 7.0 effective megapixel resolution, the Optio T20
delivers images with exceptional definition. The camera boasts
an smc PENTAX lens for clear, high-contrast images, while the
unique lens coating reduces ghosting and other artifacts. The
Optio T20's superb image processing technology produces vivid
colors and creates smooth tonal expressions at all brightness
levels.
My Drawing mode for easy picture design
The Optio T20 comes with the My Drawing mode, which lets users
customize their shots. With the enclosed stylus pen, users may
create original pictures by writing directly on the image shown
on the monitor or adding a stored illustration with the Stamp
function. The camera also offers a function for storing favorite
photos as original stamps to add to other images.
12 shooting modes cover a wide range of scenes
The Optio T20 features 12 versatile shooting modes such as
Portrait, Landscape, Flower, and Night Scene. Just choose the
mode matching the subject scene and the camera automatically

Selecting the mode is easy with the touch display and the Mode
Palette, which displays PENTAX mode icons on the LCD monitor.
