About Ricoh Caplio R5 Silver, Digital Point & Shoot 7mp Camera, with 28-200mm Optical Zoom & Vibration Correction function

The Caplio R5 succeeds the standard setting Caplio R4 with a wide angle & high-magnification zoom, featuring an effective 6.04 megapixel CCD. With roots based in the solid features of it's predecessor, the Caplio R5 is designed to give even more fun & easy photography

Improvements include employing an effective 7.24 megapixel CCD, & achievement of high-sensitivity photography with low noise & edge to edge picture clarity through the Smooth Imaging processing Engine II

Photograph at even higher image quality & zoom magnification. The high-level of image quality is enabled & images with little noise are achieved through the development of a image processing engine that achieves high-speed processing & algorithm that makes the most of the image engine

Further noise reduction is achieved with the design of peripheral CCD circuitry. ISO 1600 sensitivity at full resolution is achieved. The R5 offers superior edge to edge picture clarity & improvements in auto-focus, automatic-exposure & AWB

The well-received 28-200 mm 7.1x wide-angle zoom lens from the preceding model has been fitted into a body of just 26mm. The lens supports a wide range of photographic options from panoramic landscapes to wide-angle photography & indoor shooting under low light close to the subject to impressive telephoto photography

Furthermore, the Caplio R5 includes an Auto Resize function that automatically changes the image size when shooting at 7M size & zooming in excess of 200 mm optical. This enables high zoom photography of up to 34.1x1 (equivalent to 960mm) at high image quality without image correction processing

Whenever it detects excessive camera motion, the vibration correction system, based on Ricoh's own CCD shift method, moves the CCD in the opposite direction to counterbalance camera shake. This results in the ability to take clear telephoto shots at high zoom magnification, macro shots, & indoor shots

Release time lag is as short as approx. 0.09 seconds*. Time from depressing the shutter button with focus locked (half-press) until exposure actually starts is a speedy 0.007 seconds*.Shooting interval & start time are both rapid, at approx. 0.5 & 1.2 seconds*, respectively

Continuous shooting speed is improved to 2.8 frames/second*. Shots can be taken at best image quality until memory is full, & the images shot can be displayed on the LCD while shooting

The R5 has an improved 2.5"" LCD with 230,000 pixels, & the battery has a longer life. The camera's macro mode allows close in shooting of objects from a wide macro 1 cm to tele macro 14 cm. A Zoom Macro function is included

Up to 2 setting conditions of your choice can be saved to scene modes, & an enhanced Skew Correction function for corrections after shooting is available. The design combines functionality & texture with features like a comfortable grip, easy-to-use controls, high-grade materials, & surface finishing in a compact body.
