As you can see, under dark light conditions the photos seem to benefit from a little Photoshoping. However the details are captured well so the photos look good after balancing.
Verdict
The A20 costs - at the moment - around £160 (243Eur or 315USD), so it's one of the cheapest 10MP cameras on the market.
The quality of the shots are great, and the device is light, small and easy to use.
This camera will certainly be added to my list of devices when I replace my now ageing Ixus.
Yes the shots are not as good as the ones I get from my Canon 400D, however the lens on my 400D cost the same as this camera, and because of these points I can highly recommend this camera to anyone that wants a new compact digital camera.
The only downside that I noticed, was the USB port on the device. Instead of using a standard mini USB port, Pentax have gone for an even smaller port. This means that you cannot just use a standard cable, and instead have to carry the included one around.
Score : 9/10 - Highly versatile, small, light and easy to use compact digital camera.

I never found to shoot speed to be an issue. It's at least as quick as my Ixus's.
