Ricoh CX6

The Ricoh CX6 is a modest upgrade to the CX5 yet is already behind the rest of the travel zoom pack. It's a somewhat bulky camera with a 10 megapixel backside-illuminated CMOS sensor, yet image quality doesn't compete with any of the other new travel...

Ricoh CX6 review

A step up from the Ricoh CX5, the CX6 adds aperture/shutter priority, continuous AF shooting modes and speed. It's a quality compact.

Excellent image quality ; Easy to navigate menus ; Variety of filters and shooting modes

Poorly laced buttons ; Hard to use dials ; Grey fringing on one shot

The Ricoh CX6 is a light compact camera that is quick to use and enables you express your creativity and build on your skills.

Ricoh CX6

The latest model in Ricoh's CX series features several eye-catching upgrades, but does it warrant serious consideration?

1.23m-dot LCD screen ; Hybrid AF system ; Addition of shutter and aperture priority ; Usability

Lack of Raw capture ; Slightly bulky ; Softening towards frame edges

Speed of operation – from power on to shooting, in about one second

That tiny toggle button makes menus harder to navigate

Thanks to its super-fast auto focus, a dedicated movie button and massive, bright hi-res LCD, the Ricoh CX6 offers an excellent balance for anyone who appreciates the convenience of point-and-shoot but wants more sophisticated results. The other new...

The latest camera in Ricoh's CX range, the CX6, is a premium digital compact camera with a 10.7x optical zoom lens and 10 megapixel sensor. Daniel Bell puts it to the test.

Minimum focus distance; 5 fps high-speed shooting; Good build quality; Quick focusing speed; Good colour reproduction; Good noise performance up to ISO1600

Fast and responsive

Have owned several Ricohs, including an earlier version of the CX. They are all well engineered and responsive cameras with very well designed interfaces and controls.
