Ricoh Caplio R8

Ricoh have announced the new Ricoh Caplio R8 – a 10 megapixel update to the R7 – it features a newly designed body available in black or silver, a wide angle 7.1x optical zoom lens (28 – 200mm equivalent), image stabilisation, ISO 1600, 2.7″ screen with 460k pixels, and a 1cm macro mode. The camera will be available in March with an RRP of £249:

“The new R8 is the successor model to the R7 which also had a slim body and 7.1x optical wide-angle zoom lens (28–200 mm in 35 mm focal length). By combining a new 10 megapixel CCD with the earlier model’s popular Smooth Imaging EngineⅢ image processing engine, the R8 takes high-definition photography to a higher level. This new model combines ease of use and technical specification in a body that is contemporary and stylish and has been designed based on the concept: “A tool you will want to use every day”.
