  Ricoh Caplio R7
  By Staff writers
  
  Review summary: Megapixels are a plenty, but the real selling point here is that impressive lens. It's just a shame that some noise issues cloud matters
  
  Pros: Compact design. Reasonable Price. Amazing lens.
  
  Cons: Noise at higher ISOs. Design clunky. Flash results hit and miss
  
  Verdict: Other features include the now ubiquitous face-recognition technology, plus the first implementation of the new Smooth Imaging Engine III processing engine, which promises such niceties as getting rid of some of the unwanted noise that blights shots taken

  Review summary: ricoh caplio r7 review: The Ricoh Caplio R7 is an outstanding compact camera, with all the features you could want packed into a sturdy, pocket-sized metal frame. It's not perfect and it's not cheap, but it is very much worth tracking down.
  
  Pros: Wide angle lens, Large zoom, Joystick control
  
  Cons: Jagged screen, No aperture or shutter priority

  Ricoh Caplio R7
  
  Review summary: The Ricoh Caplio R7 is a very interesting digital camera. It has 8 megapixels and a 7x wide, angle zoom lens. It has a few extra features when compared to other smaller compacts. Shutter lag times are low and I liked the test photos I managed to produce.
  
  Pros: Shutter lag times, build quality, extra features, colours
  
  Cons: Lowlight
  
  Verdict: The Caplio R7 has an excellent specification and low shutter lag times. It worked well in most outdoor situations and I really like the colours. With a longer than standard wide angle, zoom lens this camera has a lot going for it.

  Ricoh Caplio R7
  By Andrew Kliem
  
  Pros: Big zoom, stylish design, very fast
  
  Cons: Some colour and noise issues
  
  Verdict: Ricoh's R7 is a great compact camera for those after a speedy model with a big zoom and optical image stabilisation. There are units out there that take better pictures but this model is more than adequate in that regard.
