Ricoh Caplio 500G Wide review

 

A waterproof wide-angle with a rugged build

Waterproof ; 8 megapixels

Don't mistake this for an underwater camera

The tough build and waterproofing will appeal if you spend a lot of time in deserts or swimming pools

Ricoh Caplio 500G Wide digital camera

 

Six months after it was first announced, Ricoh has finally released the 500G in the UK. The Ricoh Caplio 500G Wide provides a tough package in terms of build, ease of use and versatility. Image quality is good thanks to a nice lens, fast, accurate...

Build, simple to use, nice wide-angle lens, image quality at lower ISOs, quite probably the perfect family or beach camera, ideal builder’s snapper.

Big and clunky, horrible to look at, image noise at higher ISOs, price, horrible to look at … and did I say it looked horrible?

The Ricoh Caplio 500G Wide provides a tough package in terms of build, ease of use and versatility. Image quality is good thanks to a nice lens, fast, accurate focusing and good metering with the caveat on image noise at higher sensitivities.
