The Ricoh Caplio G4 is a neat and tidy kind of camera. It's not very different
from the 10's of other 3 megapixel digital cameras on the market, either in
terms of design or features. It doesn't create photos that will take your
breath away - indeed, they suffer a bit too much from purple fringing. Having
said all that, the Caplio G4 does have a few tricks up its sleeve, principally
the speed at which it operates, and combined with the very low price, the camera
is a bit of a bargain for anyone who is new to digital cameras or photography
in general. The Caplio G4 won't excite the seasoned photographer, but
on the other hand it won't frighten and confuse the less experienced snapper.
Personally, I wouldn't buy one, but I can think of a lot of people who would
and who would enjoy using it. If easy to use and value for money are at the
top of your shopping list, you could do far worse than the Ricoh Caplio G4.
