An incredible looking camera with enough battery power to go all day. For its price it is a reasonable alternative, but if taking brilliant pictures is the primary concern buyers may want to look elsewhere.
Ricoh Japan has today announced the new Caplio R2, almost the same as the recently announced R1V this interesting looking camera has a five megapixel CCD and wide-angle 4.8x zoom (28 - 135 mm equiv.). The R2 does away with the R1V's optical viewfinder and instead has a much larger 2.5" LCD monitor (which is cool these days, apparently) and 28 MB of built-in memory. The R2 will be available in both silver and black. Once more there's no news about distribution, thin on the ground in Europe and nonexistent in the US.
Ricoh's Caplio R2 is an upgrade to the R1 with a 5-megapixel CCD sensor but the same 4.8x zoom lens, which is equivalent to 28-135mm in 35mm format, and the same 'pendulum' lens retracting mechanism. The physical dimensions and controls of both models are similar, although the R2 lacks an optical viewfinder and its 2.5-inch LCD monitor takes up most of the rear panel.
Ricoh Caplio R2 (Compact Camera): 4 out of 5 stars from 2 genuine reviews on Australia's largest opinion site ProductReview.com.au.
