Curvy and comfortable to hold, 28-140mm zoom lens, the Canon D20 has a solid zoom range, Large 3-inch LCD display perfect for outdoor viewing, even in bright sunlight, Simple, easy menu navigation, Diverse array of shooting modes, filters and effects -...
A little awkward to operate one-handed, Bigger than most other waterproof cameras in its class (though this could be also seen as a positive, depending on what you're looking for), No in-camera panorama mode, Power-up, shutter lag and shot recycle time...
Big and bold, Canon's first foray into folded optical design was certainly a success, even if wide-angle optical quality suffered a bit. The Canon D20's overall performance put it at the top of our Waterproof Camera Shootout 2012 in a fairly close race...
Our initial thoughts about the Canon Powershot D20 weren't good. It has a rather poor dynamic range which really shone through on the first set of pictures we took with it. The camera's metering prefers the darker areas over the light and will happily...
5x stabilised optical zoom, Designed for purpose, 1080p24 video recording, built-in GPS receiver with track log.
Very poor continuous shooting, Poor noise handling, No 'door open' warning , Relatively expensive.
The Canon PowerShot D20 is a point-and-shoot compact designed for use outdoors and in the water. The difference between the D20 and many other waterproof compacts, like the Panasonic Lumix TS20 / FT20 is that it's been designed from the ground up...
No. Its a decent camera, but the Panasonic TS4 and the Olympus Toughcam TG-1 both out-perform it in image quality and ease of use. A rugged camera absolutely must be super easy to use. If you cant take a beautiful photo while jumping off a cliff, then t...
Great tough camera: waterproof to 33 feet, dustproof, can shoot in freezing weather, Very easy to handle underwater, 720p and 1080p HD video, Bright, highres antireflective 3.0inch wide viewingangle LCD, Very effective sensor shift shake reduction, Large
On/off button next to shutter makes it too easy to turn camera off by mistake, When it goes off, camera won't turn back on for over 20 seconds, Fairly large and heavy for a compact, Battery compartment door latch a nail buster, Feature set somewhat playfu
The PowerShot D20 is Canon's second entry into the waterproof/rugged camera space where it joins offerings from the likes of Pentax, Nikon, Panasonic, Fujifilm and a number of specialty manufacturers. The eye-catchingly styled camera is perhaps a bit larg...
Great in-camera interface, Sharp lens, Impressive underwater performance
Moderately slow; not suitable for fast-action shots or video, Unconventional design is interesting but bulky, Unreliable GPS
Tough cams are an experimental breed by nature, and Canon pulled out the stops with the D20. From the unconventional design to its remarkable lens, this rugged cam easily sits among the best in the bunch. The fact that it shoots superbly underwater will...
After a few years of waiting, Canon has finally released its next lifeproof camera, the PowerShot D20. Features like a 12.1-Megapixel High-Sensitivity CMOS imaging sensor, DIGIC 4 image processor, Intelligent IS optical image stabilization, 5x optical ...

Sharp lens. Good high ISO performance. Integrated GPS.
Large, even for a rugged camera. So-so speeds. 1080p video limited to 24fps
The GPS-equipped Canon PowerShot D20 is a well-built but large rugged camera with a sharp lens. It produces good-looking images at every supported ISO, but isn't the fastest tough camera that we've tested....
Low imagenoise until ISO 400, Nicely saturated colors, Generally responsive, Good stabilization, Quick optical zoom, Sharp MFAssist view, Excellent LCD visibility, Excellent rugged construction, Quick shutterlag, Good batterylife for GPSenabled camera, Ea

Canon's second rugged digital camera is encased in a more conventionally-designed body while providing a hefty amout of protection. The Powershot D20 can be taken underwater to a depth of 10m while being shockproof to falls from 1.5m and freezeproof down ...
