The Vivitar XV-20 is a Pentax K mount, 35mm SLR marketed by Vivitar and manufactured by Cosina. The XV-20 is believed to be a rebadged version of Cosina's CT-20 camera. The camera's shutter is fully electronic and it cannot be fired without a battery. The camera uses aperture priority automatic exposure. The only shutter speed settings are Auto, X (1/85), and Bulb. The camera includes a self-timer with a delay of 10 seconds. The timer's red LED flashes more rapidly 2 seconds before tripping the shutter. The XV-20 was sold in the early 1980s.
