Ricoh CX5 review

A solid, dependable and versatile superzoom compact, but doesn't do enough to outshine big name rivals

Good picture quality and colouration.

Well designed and built with a good sensor. Slightly enhanced colour without flash which makes pics in poor light and dull days better than they actually are. All round a great little snapper for the money.

Ricoh CX5

Ricoh is most definitely a niche camera brand, and it appeals to a particular sub-section of photographers. Class-leading features like quick autofocus and a bright screen don't always make up for the lack of other essential options like RAW capture and manual controls.
Pros:
  • Quick
  • effective AF
  • Excellent macro performance
  • Eye-Fi compatibility
  • Now has HDMI out
Cons:
  • No RAW
  • No manual controls
  • ISO performance over 200 needs work
  • Design flaws mean the camera slips out of hand easily

  • Excellent macro performance
  • Eye-Fi compatibility

Cons:
  • No RAW
  • No manual controls
  • ISO performance over 200 needs work
  • Design flaws mean the camera slips out of hand easily

Ricoh CX5

Aside from cosmetic modifications, nothing much has changed in Ricoh's CX series of slimline digicams since the CX3 was released early last year. The sensor is the same 10-megapizel back-illuminated CMOS chip and the camera has the same retracting 10.7x optical zoom lens.

Ricoh CX5 Digital Camera

A company perhaps better known for photocopiers and large printers but they have produced digitalcameras for a while. However this is the first of their units to have come my way, but all decent recent units have similar features.
