You need to find a camera that has Continuous Shooting or Burst mode. Most compact digicams can shoot continuously about 1.5 frames per second (fps) while more advanced DSLR cameras can shoot continuously about 5 fps or more.
This means when you press the shutter release button and hold it down, the camera will keep taking pictures until its internal buffer is full. 5fps means that the camera can take 5 shots in one second.

EzraThis is a disambiguous question but i will try to answer it for you.
If you mean that 20 photos have to be taken at exactly the same time then you are talking about needing 20 cameras looped together not cheap.
The fastest FPS (frames per second) cameras are ultra expensive and can take photos at a trillion frames a second, these are used in fighting cancer etc etc.
However if you are talking about a standard of the off the self digital camera? most Dslr cameras run at about 3.5 frames a second like the canon 450D up-to about 20 frames per second for the Canon 5D MkIII , the last being a high end professional camera, for the stunning jump shots, landings etc etc that are nice and crisp.
Prices for a Dslr Camera can range for a few hundred to several thousand pounds / dollars
As for setting up a string of cameras you can imagine if 1 camera cost $5,000 dollars setting up 20 will cost you $100,000
the Trillion FPS camera has a price tag starting at $250,000 and its hard to imagine anything happening a trillion times a second, this camera may give the Illusion of taking several pictures at once but it does not , each photo is taken a trillionth of a second apart. To the naked eye the first 700 shots would look identical.
In actuality no single camera can take more than one picture at a time no matter how fast the shutter speed.
Hollywood use cameras that run at about 40fps like in the matrix.
The leading off the shelf brands are Canon, Panasonic and Sony.

Disposable cameras have a limited number of pictures they can take on a strip of film. Often around 2 dozen pictures. When you have used up the film taking those few pictures, you need to buy another camera.
