Ricoh got rid of the name Caplio and unveiled the first camera without the Caplio sticker. Ricoh announced the release of a compact camera - the Ricoh R50 - that features a 10 megapixel CCD, a 5x optical zoom (36 mm - 180 mm in 35 mm camera format) and pays particular attention to portability.

The new Ricoh R50 is a digital camera with a compact body that measures 97.3 (W)×56.3 (H)×23.4 (D) mm and makes it easy to carry. This user-friendly camera features scene functions that can be used in a wide variety of shooting conditions, enabling anyone to easily take beautiful images. It is equipped with 15 differing scene functions such as a sports function which captures the split-second movement of a fast-moving subject.

One push of the shutter button allows the user to take successive pictures. Convenient for those wishing to check the form of their golf or tennis swing. Possible to record images other than still photography. The Ricoh R50 is available in March 2008, colour silver and a price tag of £149.99 inc vat.

The sports function captures the split-second movement of a fast-moving subject. The cosmetic function can be used to enhance the skin tones of the subject. The still image with audio function allows a voice memo to be attached to a still image.

The night view portrait function enables the user to enhance the subject while retaining the background night scenery. The lamp function enables photograph in low-light conditions. The best shot function allows 4 successive still images to be captured
as the exposure changes.
