May show signs of scrapes, scratches, scuffs from previous use. Product Photos are accurate. Everything about the camera works until you go to take a picture and the screen is washed out. This means it has a bad CCD Sensor and will need to be replaced. This was a common issue among cameras from this generation so selling for parts only. It can be repaired if you find the sensor / assembly. Includes:

  • Canon Optura 20 digital video camcorder features a high-definition 1/4″ 1.33-megapixel interlaced CCD, enabling users to capture digital still images at up to SXGA (1,280 x 960 pixels) resolution in normal, fine and superfine compression modes as well as high-quality video. Moreover, the unit features a powerful 16x optical zoom lens, which maintains outstanding imaging performance over a wide range of focal distances.
    Further contributing to outstanding movie and still images is Canon’s proprietary MACS (Multi Architecture Camera System) camera-signal-processing LSI (large-scale integrated circuit).
    MACS automatically assumes that tape-recorded images will be displayed on TV monitors and card-recorded images printed out, and optimizes color processing accordingly to ensure vivid high-quality color reproduction in either mode.
    In addition to stills, the Canon Optura 20 offers card-based recording of video in the Motion-JPEG format,making it possible for users to download their video clips to a PC via the USB port (connection cable supplied) and distribute them easily as e-mail attachments. Video clips can be stored on SD Memory Card or MultiMediaCard recording media at lengths of 10 seconds at 320 x 240 pixels, or 30 seconds at 160 x 120-pixel resolution.
    Canon Optura 20 features a sleek rounded body for hand-held comfort and a bright 3.5″ wide LCD monitor for viewing ease. Other performance-enhancing features include Super Night Mode, which emits a bright LED light as supplemental illumination to permit color video recording in virtual darkness. ·
