Wednesday news from around the web (5/11/05)

Post by GuruX »

Got a lot of news to post, so here we go. :)

TrustedReviews is first on the list with a review of Ricoh's Caplio R1V digital camera. Here's a peek:
The R1V is a fairly average camera, but with one or two interesting
features that set it apart from the crowd. It is a five megapixel model
with a 4.8x optical zoom lens, a 1.8in LCD monitor and uses SD cards for
storage. At around £180 it isn’t exactly cheap, but it is well built and
looks good. The camera has an all-metal body and comes in two finishes -
champagne or black. The camera’s main power switch is the handgrip
feature on the front panel. Slide it right and the lens cover snaps open
as the camera activates, slide it left and it shuts down, closing the
lens in the process. I personally don’t like this type of switch, but I
seem to be in a minority so I’ll keep quiet.
