A fantastic example of the Ricoh CX4, a compact camera that was surprisingly advanced for its time and still makes a very enjoyable point-and-shoot today.
The CX4 combines a powerful 10.7x optical zoom with a remarkably slim, pocket-friendly body, offering an impressive 28–300mm equivalent focal range. This makes it a very versatile little camera, suitable for everything from landscapes and everyday photography to distant subjects without the need to carry a larger camera or change lenses.
What Makes the Ricoh CX4 Special?
10.7x Optical Zoom – 28–300mm Equivalent
The built-in zoom lens provides an impressive range in such a small body. It is an excellent choice for travel, holidays and everyday photography when you want plenty of zoom while keeping the camera small and easy to carry.
Back-Illuminated CMOS Sensor
The CX4 uses a BSI-CMOS sensor, an advanced technology for its generation that helped the camera perform better in lower-light conditions compared with many conventional compact cameras of the same era.
Advanced Image Stabilization
Ricoh equipped the CX4 with an effective sensor-shift image stabilization system, helping reduce camera shake and blurred photographs, particularly when shooting handheld or at longer zoom settings.
Excellent Macro & Creative Features
This is one of those cameras that is simply fun to experiment with. The CX4 offers an impressive 1cm Macro mode, subject-tracking autofocus and several creative effects, including High-Contrast Black & White and a Mini Diorama effect that can give photographs a miniature or toy-like appearance.
Beautiful 3.0-inch 920k-dot LCD
The large 3.0-inch, 920k-dot high-resolution display was a premium feature for a compact camera of its era. It provides a detailed and enjoyable way to compose and review your photographs.
