Canon's popular enthusiast APS-C DSLR — 8.2MP with DIGIC II and improved AF over the 10D.
The Canon EOS 20D launched in 2004 as Canon's enthusiast APS-C DSLR, succeeding the 10D with faster burst rate, improved AF, and better processing. It was hugely popular with serious amateurs and became one of Canon's best-selling DSLRs.
The 8.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor delivered excellent image quality for 2004. 9-point AF with all cross-type sensors. 5fps burst — fast for its class. DIGIC II processor. Clean results to ISO 800 with usable ISO 1600.
Magnesium alloy body at 685g with weather-resistant construction. 1.8-inch LCD at 118k dots — tiny by modern standards. CF card slot. Built-in flash. E-TTL II flash metering. EF and EF-S lens compatibility.
Available used for almost nothing. The 8.2MP and 1.8-inch LCD are very dated. The 30D, 40D, and 50D improved progressively. A piece of Canon DSLR history — beloved by a generation of photographers. Check shutter count.
