"Ricoh's unique Double Retracting Lens System makes it possible to equip the Caplio R6 with 28-200mm optical 7.1x zoom in its remarkably slim 20.6mm body (when fully retracted). A thin body means an even more comfortable hand held camera, as well as one that emphasizes durability. The innovative curves and lines of its curve fit form and buttons positioned for one-hand operation achieve a superb body design that becomes a natural extension of your hand each time you take a picture. The Caplio R6 takes the functionality, reliability, and quality that are a must for a digital camera to a whole new level."
