The Ricoh Caplio R40 is a 6 megapixel digital camera with a 2.5 inch LCD screen and 5.7x Optical Zoom lens.
It has the ability to shoot in macro mode at up to 1cm and has the battery power to take around 350 shots without charging.
Following are some of the details that Ricoh have given about the Ricoh Caplio R40 in their press information.
28mm wide angle/160mm telephoto
Caplio R40While a 105mm zoom only gives you this perspective, the Caplio R40 shows you much more.
Stretching all the way from wide-angle 28mm to 160mm, our 5.7x optical zoom delivers more power to preserve your most precious memories.
Amazing macro photography for eye-opening views
1cm macroSet your lens to its widest angle and you can shoot as close as 1cm away from your subject! For an even more powerful perspective, use telemacro up to 8cm away. Using the four direction buttons--in AF Target Selection, you can also shift the focus point without moving your camera.
0.007-second shutter release time lag*
The Caplio R40′s ultra-high-speed response keeps you ready for action. Powering up takes 1.1 seconds, shutter release time lag is approximately 0.09 seconds (without focus lock engaged), and your camera resets for the next shot in half a second..
Large 2.5-inch High Quality LCD Monitor (153,000 pixels)
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteryThe large 2.5-inch LCD monitor allows for clearer, more detailed and defined shooting and playback of images.
Double Retracting LENS System fits a powerful lens inside a slim body
Double Retracting LENS SystemHow does a 5.7x optical zoom lens fit inside a slim 26mm camera? As the lens retracts, part of it swings like a pendulum inside the camera. Ricoh's advanced Double Retracting LENS System - a smart solution for a smart design.
