Ricoh Caplio R30 Digital Camera Review

Ricoh’s Caplio R30 is a relatively powerful digital camera packed into a very compact metal body. The 5-Megapixel model is very good feature wise, with quick access to options and speedy performance, but is let down by average image quality – expect high noise, soft focus, and purple fringing.

If having a lot of zoom power in a very compact camera is a priority then this is definitely worth considering, but if image quality is a top priority then there are better offerings, such as Canon’s excellent Digital IXUS 750.
