The Olympus FE-20 is a simple pocket camera. In terms of price it comes in at the cheaper end of the market. This makes it a good choice for someone who is looking for a small camera, without a wide range of features and does not want to pay out for one of the top of the range models. The FE-20 has 8 megapixels and a 3x optical zoom lens.
Although it does not have all the bells and whistles some of the more advanced digital cameras offer it still has all the key features you would expect a point and shoot digital camera to have. These include movies with sound, various flash settings, a macro mode for close up shots and a selection of scene modes. The scene modes help the FE-20 to select the optimum settings for a photo.
Olympus has built 20.5mb of memory into the FE-20. This is enough for you to run a few quick tests with the camera, but you will need to add a memory card before you can start using the camera seriously. The FE-20 is compatible with both xD and Micro SD cards.
