 Ricoh RR530 - Image quality
According to Joshua Waller: "Outside image quality was fairly good, colour was rich and saturated, and the pictures had good contrast, although images were soft and as a result detail was average, noise was visible in ISO50 shots. Indoors, image quality was average, with high noise in photos even when taken at ISO 100. Focusing was also a big problem, with the camera focusing slowly and often unsuccessful in low-light. Images were generally fairly soft, and may benefit from sharpening.
Ricoh Caplio digital camera - Ergonomics and Buttons
Joshua continues: "(Feel, placement, labels, etc) The buttons are fairly easy to use, and they are in a good position. There seems to be the right amount of buttons. The buttons feel okay, the shutter release is quite decent. The buttons are labelled fairly well, although the menu button could be labelled more clearly. I thought the camera felt good ergonomically. Some people may find the buttons too small. I found the 4-way joypad to be a bit small."
Ricoh Caplio RR530 - DigiCamReview conclusion
The Ricoh RR530 is a compact 5 Megapixel digital camera and is good in regards to value for money and features, however, the average movie mode, poor low-light focusing, and average speed mean that this camera is fairly average, and difficult to recommend. Good results can be obtained when taking photos outside set to ISO50… You want to learn more about the new Ricoh digital camera?
