Canon POWERSHOT-D20 Questions and Answers


#1 Is charging the camera battery through a separate battery charger, or directly to the camera?

The charger is about 3.5 x 2.5 x 0.75 inches. The battery life could be better (I have 3 batteries and would take them all for a week trip). Also, my camera died on my first water experience so test prior to departure and have a backup if pictures are really important to you. I bought the camera in July, 2012 and on July 18, 2012 it was dead. I'm sending it in for another repair - the tiny latch that holds the battery in place broke and most of my pictures are not in sharp focus since I got the camera (it definitely does not do well if there is action in the shot). I find that I'm terribly disappointed in this product - DO buy the extended warranty through MACK camera if you can. I wish I had chosen a different camera although I am really pleased with the video aspect of the D20.

#2 Can you take pictures while recording the movie?

Not that i have been able to do - pressing the shutter stops video acquisition, but since starting the movie has a separate trigger you can press shutter once to stop, again to take still, then movie button to start movie again. I had a larger canon which could take stills during video acauisition which was ok but there was frame droo during the still capture. Made me less likely to take stills during video recording even when i did have the function.

#3 can I connect the D20 with a HDMI cord to an android smart phone with a HDMI plug? in order to download photos directly to the phone? Is there an app for that?

because the PowerShot D20 supports HDMI-CEC technology, you'll be able to control the playback of your images and videos on any CEC-enabled HDTV using the TV's remote control. (CECConsumer Electronic Control - is part of the HDMI specification, enabling components in a system to communicate with one another.)
