A Low Cost Ricoh Printer

Advantages: Price and Speed
Disadvantages: Support Documentations

.... The toner capacity is not very high and hence the price of the consumables is on the higher side. The printer does not do too well in the reliability department. The 'Reliability and Service Survey' gives it's a reliability rating of average. SP C222DN works well for small groups and offices. However the inadequate installation documentations limit its popularity. The design elements are also not up to the mark. Users may find a better printer than this one in the same price range! Ricoh Aficio's SP C222DN color laser printer is cheaper than many of its contemporaries. The printer has good speed and also comes with a one year warranty period. Twenty four hour customer service is available for this printer; throughout the year. The printer is easy to maintain and its running cost is low. This should be my last review before christmas...

Review of Ricoh Aficio SP C222DN

Learning with Ricoh

Advantages: Economic when bought, great intro to SLR
Disadvantages: Outdated now

...for constant battery charging and replacing that make digitals annoying when you spot something that demands a photograph right away. I've used all kinds of 35mm film in the Ricoh and have a preference for bulk Ektachrome, rolled on in small quantities. Producing one's own slides from such film in a little developing tank, gives an insight to the photographic process that is a learning curve all of its own. The camera is heavy by modern standards - but just convince yourself that weight is quality in this type of situation.! It has the usual facility for tripods, and flash, and all the range of colour and special effects filters. This is the system that allows for real creativity - not just standard digital alteration. I use the digital snappers very happily - see review on FujiPix 610 - but that Ricoh was photography as real art.!...

Review of Ricoh Caplio R6

Didn't Ricoh used to manage Arsenal?

Advantages: stunning pictue quality, large memory capacity, easy to use, anti-vibration feature
Disadvantages: price, look and availability

...The first thing many readers will think when looking at this review is "oh my god" how ugly is that camera?", and possibly as a secondary thought, "who the hell are Ricoh, didn't he once manage Arsenal?". The answers to these questions are so obviously yes, it is a ugly mother of a camera and no, that was Bruce Rioch, but I stray from the subject matter so on with my thoughts on the camera. Cost & Availability: I will admit here, I don't own the Ricoh Caplio R6, but I have used it regularly now for over 4 months both larking around and while giving serious demonstrations to the potential buyers. More often than not the price is a big turn off with most customers. We are an independent electrical retailer and we have this item tagged at £279.99 in our shop but this does include a 2GB memory card. The cheapest I have seen this...

Review of Ricoh Caplio R5

The Perfect Camera?

Advantages: Great range of options, Stylish, Very sofisticated.
Disadvantages: The Price, A few minor flaws.

...Introduction = I would like to start of this review by stating why I came to buy this camera instead of the many other high quality cameras that were available to me on the market. Being an amateur photographer with little money to spend on new equipment I had to save up for quite a while to be to afford such a high quality camera. Having search through many opinions on this camera as well as other cameras from the Ricoh brand, I took a stab in the dark to see if this camera was for me. So after months of saving I finally received the camera after parting with £350. I am aim in this review to show you my findings and hope that you will take my opinion on board if you are considering buying this camera. This camera generated a lot of interest upon its release and with good reason to. Overview This Ricoh model...

Lens Problems on R series Caplios

Advantages: Features, looks, lens zoom range
Disadvantages: Reliability

...I've just sent my daughters back for repair just 9 months after buying it. The lens has jammed permanently open with the motor making nasty grinding noises & no image. Looking on the web, this seems be a very common problem with R4-R7 cameras with at least 11 others returning units for repair - often just after the waranty with big repair bills - upto 2/3 the value of the camera. Even after repairs, the problem seems to re-occur. Buyers beware! I think Ricoh have pushed the lens/body ratio a bit too far to the point of serously affecting reliability. My daughter was really upset as it failed 1/3 way into her holiday & it was her pride & joy - she really looked after it! Won't buy a Ricoh camera again - when you spend £170 on a camera you expect it to last longer than 9 months!...
