This may also lead to improved performance when shooting in RAW mode. It also features a 2.7-inch LCD monitor that the company says is usable even in bright sunlight, while the lens has been reconfigured for improved results, according to Ricoh.

\nRicoh announces the GX200<\/b>
\n

<\/p>\n

A high-end 24mm ultra-wide-angle optical zoom digital compact featuring high resolution 12 megapixel CCD coupled with the latest imaging engine SIE III<\/i>
\n


\nTokyo, Japan June, 24, 2008 Ricoh Co., Ltd. (president and CEO: Shiro Kondo) has announced today the development and release of the GX200 able to reproduce high quality images from edge-to-edge with low noise and natural gradation. This camera succeeds the award winning Caplio GX100 compact digital camera introduced in April 2007.
\n


\nInheriting the highly popular Caplio GX100 features such as a 24 to 72mm (35mm film equivalent focal length) high-performance wide-angle optical zoom lens on a 25mm thin pocketable compact body, a wide variety of manual shooting functions, and a removable tilting electronic viewfinder, the new GX200 achieves increased resolution via its 12 megapixel CCD and dramatic noise reduction with the addition of the new image processing engine Smooth Imaging Engine III.
\n


\nAlready a popular part of the Caplio GX100, the high-resolution wide-angle lens unit has been further configured to enable picture taking at an even higher resolution.
\n


\nWith a large wide-viewing angle 2.7-inch 460,000 dots HVGA LCD and an electronic level function, for horizontal and vertical shooting, the GX200 contains extensive shooting functions to enable camera lovers to enjoy and create stunning photographs.
\n


\nThis model comes in two package types with different accessories. The GX200 package contains: rechargeable lithium ion battery, battery charger, AV cable, USB cable, CD-ROM, strap, and lens cap. The GX200 VF KIT package contains all the above accessories plus the electronic viewfinder.
\n


\nMain Features of the GX200
\n


\n1.\tGreater image quality through use of a 12 megapixel CCD, a new image processing engine and continuous RAW mode capture.

\n \t\u2022\tAn effective 12 megapixel high-performance 1\/1.7CCD has been newly installed, with each pixel comes increased resolution.

\n \t\u2022\tThe adoption of a new image processing engine Smooth Imaging Engine III allows for greater control over the noise reduction process by the photographer without sacrificing resolution or saturation.

\n \t\u2022\tHigh image quality combined with a lens with greater backlight capability*.

\n*\t \tThis is the 24 to 72mm equivalent wide-angle zoom lens mounted on the previous model (Caplio GX100). It features a generous configuration of 11 elements in 7 groups, including superior aspheric surface lenses and high-refractive-index, low-dispersion lenses. This optimal configuration restricts distortion, chromatic aberration, and light falloff at edges for wide-angle operation while delivering aperture light settings from F2.5 (wide) to F4.4 (tele-photo). In addition, ghosting has been further reduced through improvements made to the lens unit.
\n


\n2.\tLarge, high-resolution 2.7-inch, 460,000 dots HVGA LCD.

\n \t\u2022\tThe new 2.7-inch, 460,000 dots high-resolution LCD has a wide viewing angle and high contrast for distinct, easy viewing even outdoors. When thumbnail images are displayed, even the small 1\/20 size images are clearly reproduced.
\n


\n3.\tElectronic level utilizing an acceleration sensor to help keep the camera horizontally or vertically level.

\n \t\u2022\tIf the level setting is set on, when the camera is level, the level indicator becomes green in the picture display. Being able to check whether the image is level while looking at the display can be useful for keeping the camera level when composing pictures of landscapes, buildings, and other scenes where the horizon is visible.

\n \t\u2022\tIt is possible to check whether the camera is level using the level sound setting.

\n \t\u2022\tThe electronic level can also be utilized while using the viewfinder.

<\/p>\n

4.\tExtensive shooting functions and high operability.

\n \t\u2022\tExpanding buffer memory has made continuous shooting of up to five images possible in RAW mode, and it is also now possible to use the bracketing function to automatically change exposure settings when shooting in RAW mode. Other expanded RAW shooting capabilities include the ability to shoot 1:1 aspect ratio (vertical\/horizontal ratio) format photography in RAW mode.

\n \t\u2022\tThe number of mode dial “My Settings” options for defining your own shooting settings has increased to three. (There were two on the Caplio GX100.)

\n \t\u2022\tThere are now one-push mode change function buttons both on the top surface and as one of the rear-surface cross keys. These buttons can be used for customized settings to, for example, switch from JPEG to RAW or from color to B&W. You can switch quickly to your preferred shooting mode when confronted with a sudden photo opportunity.

\n \t\u2022\tThe AF target shift function, which before could only be used in macro shooting, is now also available in normal shooting. Without moving the camera, it is possible to shift the target for AF or AE or both.

\n \t\u2022\tThe flash is manually raised by sliding the open switch. Flash functions on the GX200 have been further expanded with a light intensity adjustment function (-2.0 EV to +2.0 EV), a manual flash function in which intensity can be set, and a flash synchro setting where flash timing can be set as “1st Curtain” or “2nd Curtain.”

\n \t\u2022\tAn auto rotate function makes it easier to view images on the picture display.

\n \t\u2022\tEven when shooting in high-contrast situations, the camera can use an auto level correction function to achieve an appropriate level of brightness while reducing areas that are overly bright or dark.

\n \t\u2022\tThere is a distortion correction function (on\/off selection possible) to automatically correct image distortion during shooting also usable with 19mm conversion lens.

\n \t\u2022\tWhen in aperture priority mode, an auto aperture shift function will automatically adjust the aperture setting to prevent overexposure.
\n


\n5.\tEnhanced image editing functions enable images to be manipulated in the camera.

\n \t(1)\tImage color tone correction (white balance compensation)

\n \t \tBy adjusting green, magenta, blue, and amber tones, still image color tone can be corrected, with the corrected image being recorded in the camera.

\n \t(2)\t Image brightness and contrast correction (level compensation)

\n \t \tStill image brightness and contrast can be corrected with either auto or manual modes, with the corrected image being recorded in the camera. With manual correction, the image is corrected by adjusting the histogram.

\n \t(3)\tWide range of creative monochrome possibilities

<\/p>\n

\u2022\tColor, color density, contrast, and sharpness can each be defined on a five-level scale.

\n\u2022\tSepia, red, green, blue, and purple color selections are possible.

<\/p>\n

6.\tAdditional options further expand possibilities for camera use.

\n \t\u2022\tLens cap (LC-1) opens and closes automatically in sync with lens movement.

\n \t\u2022\t135mm equivalent tele conversion lens (TC-1) with built-in hood. Filter attachment possible.

\nWhen the tele conversion lens is attached, vignetting will occur when the zoom is not set to full telephoto.

\n*\t \tThe above two options can also be used on the Caplio GX100.

\n(The GX100 firmware must be updated to the latest version to use this teleconversion lens.)
\n


\n7.\tRemovable electronic viewfinder can be attached.

\n \t\u2022\tA removable and tiltable LCD viewfinder can be attached (included in GX200 VF KIT).

\n \t\u2022\tThe field of view provides 100% coverage without parallax and can display the same information as on the LCD picture display.

\n \t\u2022\tIt is convenient for shooting in bright outdoor environments and enables shooting to be done in a conventional film camera style.
