Ricoh Caplio RR530 Review
DigiCam Review has just reviewed the Ricoh Caplio RR530. They gave it an ‘average’ rating.
From the review:
The Ricoh Caplio 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, and when the camera manages to focus indoors, but noise is quite high, and shutter lag and slow focusing defintiely hinder usefulness. Much better results can be acheived by spending a little bit more money on a better camera (for example the Nikon Coolpix 5600), or a similar amount of money on a lower megapixel camera (for example the 4 megapixel Pentax Optio S40/S45).
It seems quite good for the price but there are better cameras out there that are more inexpensive. The reviewer suggests considering the Olympus FE-110 / X705, Nikon Coolpix 5600 or the Pentax Optio S40/S45.
