Well, this is the first time we post about Ricoh’s digital camera. The Caplio R30 sports a unique Double Retracting Lens System, 5.7x (28-160mm) wide-angle high-powered zoom lens, and 5.13 (effective) megapixel CCD. It is embedded with Ricoh’s Smooth Imaging Engine that enable high-speed processing as well as noise reduction to provide clear images with true colour and high-definition.

This compact digital camera, with only 26 mm thin body, is equipped with a large 2.5-inch LCD screen, 1cm macro mode and a low (0.9 sec) shutter lag. The rechargable Lithium Ion battery lets you shoot approximately 330 pictures on one single charge.

Interested? It will be available soon in Europe for £219.99 or around $400. No words about US availability.
