Canon ventures back in the water with the rugged D20


Canon-quality with every shot
Breathe new life into shooting beneath the waves and capture the rare sights and closeup detail with the special Underwater Macro mode, combined with Quick AF mode to ensure rapid and accurate focus. Handheld Night Scene mode means users can shoot dark scenes with confidence. It captures a series of high-speed shots and combines them into one crisp, well-exposed image. Active Display technology also allows users to control some camera functions by tapping the camera body, making it easier to use when wearing gloves. Retelling the story behind a stunning shot is now even easier with Movie Digest mode creating a 'making-of' film reel for a day's images.

Accessories for adventure
An easy interface allows users to search for images, create combined photo and movie Albums that can receive comments from friends, and to share Albums directly via email and Social Networking Sites.

Canon has launched its second waterproof rugged camera, the 12MP D20. It has a 5x, image stabilized 28-140mm equivalent zoom lens, featuring the company's latest 7-mode IS system. The camera's back-lit CMOS sensor allows the D20 to shoot 1080p24 movies accessible with a dedicated movie record button. Unlike the company's D10, the D20 is a relatively small, periscope-lens card camera. Canon has launched its second waterproof rugged camera, the 12MP D20.
