While it is a budget price camera, which in part excuses a plastic feel to the body, the 7-megapixel Caplio R5 nevertheless gives an impression of sophistication with a smooth black faceplate, whopping 7.1x wide-angle zoom (equivalent to 28-200mm) and...

Despite some well built and dependable cameras with genuinely decent optics, Ricohs low prices and, later, its willingness to replace traditional dials and switches with push-button electronics kept it from gaining the respect it perhaps deserved. T...
The long zoom, 7.24 megapixel CCD, stunning macro, compact size and image stabilization all help the R5 to justify £250 asking price, but as a package theres just not enough it excels at to make it easy to recommend without reservations. Good but not...

The R5 has a great zoom and excellent macro settings, but is let down by poor image quality. If you already own a compact digital camera, you may have got used to shuffling to and fro in order to frame that perfect shot. The problem is that many comp...

Size doesnt matter You dont need a big camera to have a great lens, as CHRIS CHONG finds out. In A market full of compact digital cameras, it takes a lot for a camera to stand out and the Ricoh Caplio R5 happens to be such a camera (Yes, Ricoh still...
Very flexible lens; very good high ISO performance; good battery life.
Slow image playback functions; pictures too contrasty; fussy ergonomics; slow autofocus.
The Ricoh Caplio R5 is a rather strange camera in that its one killer asset –its 28-200mm equivalent lens – is so good that it makes you forgive all of its little faults. While it is neither the fastest nor easiest-to-use camera in the market...

Squint and youll easily mistake the R5 for an R4 or an R3. While other manufacturers are making cosmetic nips and tucks and adding scene modes that we doubt most people will use, Ricoh seem happy to stick with what they know and slowly turn up the pi...
