Ricoh has announced the release of a new CX6 compact camera, which features a 10.7x optical zoom lens and introduces a new quick AF system.
The new system enhances the hardware and software of the hybrid AF system debuted in the CX5, with Ricoh claiming that the new CX6 is capable of achieving focusing times as fast as 0.1 seconds.
Meanwhile, the LCD monitor has been made 1.7 times brighter than the previous model, said to improve visibility outdoors. The CX6 also adds the ability to automatically adjust the brightness depending on the conditions.
With the new zoom assist monitor function, a small image on the LCD monitor is displayed to help with the framing of the shot.
The CX6 includes aperture and shutter-speed priority modes to enable more creative shooting, while a release button especially for movies has been added along with a wider variety of functions, such as autofocus and zoom has been made available in movie shooting mode.
Sensor
A back-illuminated 10 million pixel 1/2.3 inch CMOS sensor promises to produce good pictures in low-light situations, with super-resolution technology included to enable the CX6 to record photographs with a high-resolution feel by "automatically discerning outlines, details and gradations in the image and processing it based on the optimum settings for each."
The 10.7x zoom lens means that the CX6 has an equivalent focal length of 28-300mm, while super-resolution zoom can boost this up to 600mm. The digital zoom can magnify the subject even further, with a maximum focal length of 2880mm.
The Ricoh CX6 UK price is around £259.99 and will be available from early December in black, silver or pink.
