Ricoh Caplio R6 Review at Good Gear Guide

GoodGearGuide have reviewed the new 7.2 megapixel Ricoh Caplio R6 - an update to the unique Ricoh Caplio R5, the new R6 features a wide-angle 7.1x optical zoom lens, ISO upto 1600, image stabilisation, 1cm macro mode, an (ultra) compact metal body, updated features include Face Recognition focus, new zoom control, a new slim body (20.6mm vs 26mm), a 2.7" screen, etc. The camera will be available in Silver, Red (pictured above), or Black:

"The features list is reasonable including a very impressive 3.7 shot per second continuous shot mode. This is one of the speediest burst modes we've ever seen on a compact and when combined with the 7.1x optical zoom and Ricoh's anti-blur technology, it places a lot of power into the hands of the user. However, you should note that with the anti-blur switched on, we experienced some very mixed results with regards to image quality."

Ricoh Caplio R6 Review at ePhotoZine

ePhotoZine have reviewed the new 7.2 megapixel Ricoh Caplio R6 - an update to the unique Ricoh Caplio R5, the new R6 features a wide-angle 7.1x optical zoom lens, ISO upto 1600, image stabilisation, 1cm macro mode, an (ultra) compact metal body, updated features include Face Recognition focus, new zoom control, a new slim body (20.6mm vs 26mm), a 2.7" screen, etc. The camera will be available in Silver, Red (pictured above), or Black:

"There are some great features on the Caplio R6, starting off with the design which is stylish and modern. The zoom is great, really one of the fastest we've seen on a compact, and tied in to a 28mm wide angle setting, really gets the camera off to a flying start. The face recognition focus system works well, finding faces where ever they are on the screen, but the portrait mode, with its desire to make everything seem nice and fluffy, rather hammers the detail."

Think Camera have reviewed the new 7.2 megapixel Ricoh Caplio R6 - an update to the unique Ricoh Caplio R5, the new R6 features a wide-angle 7.1x optical zoom lens, ISO upto 1600, image stabilisation, 1cm macro mode, an (ultra) compact metal body, updated features include Face Recognition focus, new zoom control, a new slim body (20.6mm vs 26mm), a 2.7" screen, etc. The camera will be available in Silver, Red (pictured above), or Black:

"Overall, Ricoh's Caplio R6 is very impressive. Ricoh have made some very good choices in how it operates, so it can be full-auto when required, or it can give the photographer control when they want it. This level of control is backed up by an impressive feature set that by and large is well implemented - face detection aside. All this, and it's responsive and easy on battery life as well."

"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."
