Catch My Moment
I wonder what fun little surprises are out there waiting for me today.
If I take my camera out with that kind of attitude,
I know the way I look at the things around me will change somehow.
I relax, loosen up, and let my heart take over as I press the shutter.
And the picture that emerges is sure to capture the scene that moved me.
Casual, creative, compact—the CX5.
Good opportunities don't just sit around waiting for you.
That's why you have to grab onto
those special moments whenever they come along.

RICOH Pure Image Quality Technology
The imaging philosophy that lies at the root of all Ricoh digital cameras: not just “high image quality” but “pure image quality, true to
what is perceived by the naked eye.” This is achieved through three core technologies—a low-distortion lens with true-to-life imaging
properties, an image sensor with superior high-sensitivity performance, and an imaging engine that reproduces images in minute detail—
that have been designed and developed as a single mechanism, offering unsurpassed resolution and faithful, unaffected color reproduction.
Image Processing
Engine
Lens
Image
Sensor
The CX5 boasts a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor combined with advanced Smooth Imaging
Engine IV image processing. Poorly-lit indoor or night scenes are rendered in pure, unblemished
quality, as of course are brightly-lit subjects. An output pixel interpolation algorithm residing in
dedicated logic circuits in the imaging engine reduces loss of detail in highlights to faithfully recreate
high-contrast scenes exactly as they appear to the naked eye. The CX5 produces photographs with
even more amazing resolution than previous models.
Imaging processing performance that puts a premium on pure
and high-level image quality ensures
that you'll get great shots with high image quality.
Capture a beautiful world that goes unnoticed until it is magnified using photo expression techniques
such as background blurring. Macro shooting will teach you new ways to enjoy photography. Getting as
close as 1 cm for wide-angle and 28 cm for telephoto, you can enjoy shooting powerful images that are
only possible with macro. *31 mm equivalent for wide-angle and 300 mm equivalent for telephoto.
Macro mode brings you closer, ever closer,
to allow you to take shots of distances as close as 1 cm away.
The CX5's super-resolution technology discerns the outlines, details, and gradations in the image
automatically and processes the photograph based on the optimal settings for each. This allows the camera
to record images with even higher resolution than with previous models.
*The level of super-resolution can be set to OFF, Weak, or Strong.
Super-resolution technology for high-resolution image quality
for everything from normal photography to zoom and macro shooting.
This reduces the amount of image noise in photographs taken at high sensitivities to give you beautiful,
limpid photographs with details, tones, and colors as vivid as those seen in the original subject.
*The noise reduction function level can be specified as Off, Auto, Weak, Strong, or MAX.
*The time to record an image varies depending on the noise reduction setting.
Noise reduction for beautiful results at high sensitivities.
Eye-Fi card linking function
Still images at maximum pixels (10M) can now be shot continuously at high-speed of
about 5 frames/sec. So you can capture that decisive moment in a high-definition image.
*Continuous shooting speed will vary depending on shooting conditions, card type, card condition, etc.
High-speed, high-quality continuous shooting at approx.
5 frames/sec. for high image quality even in continuous mode.
The CX5 comes equipped with Ricoh's unique new hybrid AF system, which combines an AF sensor
for continuously measuring the distance between the camera and subject together with Contrast AF.
This hybrid AF system allows the camera to set the focus in as little as 0.2 sec., not only for 28-mm
wide-angle shooting but also for 300-mm telephoto. Ensures that you capture the image you were
waiting for over the entire zoom range, never to miss another good shot again.
*AF focusing times were measured under Ricoh measurement conditions.
High-speed autofocus means that you'll never miss
another opportunity that comes along for a good shot again.
New
Ricoh’s original retracting lens system made it possible to fit the high-magnification 10.7× optical wide-angle zoom lens in a thin 29.4
mm body that is both easy to carry and easy to use. This lens can handle a wide range of shooting situations, including shooting of
expansive landscapes and powerful telephoto shots as well as wide-angle shooting of interior scenes with limited distance between
camera and subject. The CX-5 also comes equipped with a new high-resolution zoom. This zoom enables telephoto shooting at
600 mm equivalent with minimal degradation in image quality.
10.7× 28–300 mm optical zoom + SR 600 mm zoom from wide-angle to telephoto.
New
Scene modes give you easy access to whole suites of photographic techniques specifically adapted to your subject. The CX-5
comes newly equipped with Cooking mode, which lets you take photos of food that looks so delicious you'll want to reach out
and taste it; Golf Swing Continuous mode, which is useful for when you want to check out your golf swing; and Fireworks mode,
which beautifully captures glittering flower and other types of fireworks as they flash across the night sky, in addition to Night
Landscape Multi-shot mode, which is perfect for taking photos of night scenes.
14 different types of scene modes make
professional-level photography as easy as selecting a mode.
By just pointing the camera, "scene auto mode" will switch to the optimum shooting settings. The
camera identifies the type of scene being photographed (portrait, sports, night portrait, landscape,
nightscape, macro mode, etc.) and automatically switches to the optimum shooting settings. As a
result, you enjoy quick and easy photography fine tuned to the specific scene.
Scene auto mode (S-AUTO) puts the camera in charge
of scene selection, ensuring good results with any subject.
The large, high-resolution LCD monitor has a wide viewing
angle and high contrast. With sRGB comparison of 100% for
color reproduction range, it vividly reproduces image colors.
The screen has a fluorine coat to prevent soiling, a hard coat
to prevent scratches, and an anti-reflection coat.
The big-screen, 3.0˝ 920,000-dot

This option makes it easy to enjoy a variety of creative effects. Choose from six different modes,
including “Soft focus,” “Cross process,” “Toy camera,” and “Miniaturize,” and then simply press
the shutter-release button for unique results.

I I wanted to take the shot
without using the ash,
So I could capture the unique atmosphere
of the scene unaffected.
I took a lot of different pictures
of a single scene from a variety of distances.
And when I checked the pictures later on,
I found some totally unexpected discoveries
had been hidden there.
I got a quick snapshot before taking a bite,
So I could relish the taste of the sweets
for a long time afterwards.
I snapped the shot without saying a word.
This natural expression is the most like her real self.

Scene modes give you easy access to whole suites of photographic techniques specifically adapted to your subject. The CX-5
comes newly equipped with Cooking mode, which lets you take photos of food that looks so delicious you'll want to reach out
and taste it; Golf Swing Continuous mode, which is useful for when you want to check out your golf swing; and Fireworks mode,
which beautifully captures glittering flower and other types of fireworks as they flash across the night sky, in addition to Night
Landscape Multi-shot mode, which is perfect for taking photos of night scenes.
14 different types of scene modes make
professional-level photography as easy as selecting a mode.
By just pointing the camera, "scene auto mode" will switch to the optimum shooting settings. The
camera identifies the type of scene being photographed (portrait, sports, night portrait, landscape,
nightscape, macro mode, etc.) and automatically switches to the optimum shooting settings. As a
result, you enjoy quick and easy photography fine tuned to the specific scene.
Scene auto mode (S-AUTO) puts the camera in charge
of scene selection, ensuring good results with any subject.
The large, high-resolution LCD monitor has a wide viewing
angle and high contrast. With sRGB comparison of 100% for
color reproduction range, it vividly reproduces image colors.

RICOH Pure Image Quality Technology
The imaging philosophy that lies at the root of all Ricoh digital cameras: not just “high image quality” but “pure image quality, true to
what is perceived by the naked eye.” This is achieved through three core technologies—a low-distortion lens with true-to-life imaging
properties, an image sensor with superior high-sensitivity performance, and an imaging engine that reproduces images in minute detail—
that have been designed and developed as a single mechanism, offering unsurpassed resolution and faithful, unaffected color reproduction.
Image Processing
Engine
Lens
Image
Sensor
The CX5 boasts a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor combined with advanced Smooth Imaging
Engine IV image processing. Poorly-lit indoor or night scenes are rendered in pure, unblemished
quality, as of course are brightly-lit subjects. An output pixel interpolation algorithm residing in
dedicated logic circuits in the imaging engine reduces loss of detail in highlights to faithfully recreate
high-contrast scenes exactly as they appear to the naked eye. The CX5 produces photographs with
even more amazing resolution than previous models.
Imaging processing performance that puts a premium on pure
and high-level image quality ensures
that you'll get great shots with high image quality.
Capture a beautiful world that goes unnoticed until it is magnified using photo expression techniques
such as background blurring. Macro shooting will teach you new ways to enjoy photography. Getting as
close as 1 cm for wide-angle and 28 cm for telephoto, you can enjoy shooting powerful images that are
only possible with macro. *31 mm equivalent for wide-angle and 300 mm equivalent for telephoto.
Macro mode brings you closer, ever closer,
to allow you to take shots of distances as close as 1 cm away.
The CX5's super-resolution technology discerns the outlines, details, and gradations in the image
automatically and processes the photograph based on the optimal settings for each. This allows the camera
to record images with even higher resolution than with previous models.
*The level of super-resolution can be set to OFF, Weak, or Strong.
Super-resolution technology for high-resolution image quality
for everything from normal photography to zoom and macro shooting.
This reduces the amount of image noise in photographs taken at high sensitivities to give you beautiful,
limpid photographs with details, tones, and colors as vivid as those seen in the original subject.
*The noise reduction function level can be specified as Off, Auto, Weak, Strong, or MAX.
*The time to record an image varies depending on the noise reduction setting.
Noise reduction for beautiful results at high sensitivities.
Eye-Fi card linking function
Still images at maximum pixels (10M) can now be shot continuously at high-speed of
about 5 frames/sec. So you can capture that decisive moment in a high-definition image.
*Continuous shooting speed will vary depending on shooting conditions, card type, card condition, etc.
High-speed, high-quality continuous shooting at approx.
5 frames/sec. for high image quality even in continuous mode.
The CX5 comes equipped with Ricoh's unique new hybrid AF system, which combines an AF sensor
for continuously measuring the distance between the camera and subject together with Contrast AF.
This hybrid AF system allows the camera to set the focus in as little as 0.2 sec., not only for 28-mm
wide-angle shooting but also for 300-mm telephoto. Ensures that you capture the image you were
waiting for over the entire zoom range, never to miss another good shot again.

Catch My Moment
I wonder what fun little surprises are out there waiting for me today.
If I take my camera out with that kind of attitude,
I know the way I look at the things around me will change somehow.
I relax, loosen up, and let my heart take over as I press the shutter.
And the picture that emerges is sure to capture the scene that moved me.
Casual, creative, compact—the CX5.
Good opportunities don't just sit around waiting for you.
That's why you have to grab onto
those special moments whenever they come along.

Catch My Moment
I wonder what fun little surprises are out there waiting for me today.
If I take my camera out with that kind of attitude,
I know the way I look at the things around me will change somehow.
I relax, loosen up, and let my heart take over as I press the shutter.
And the picture that emerges is sure to capture the scene that moved me.
Casual, creative, compact—the CX5.
Good opportunities don't just sit around waiting for you.
That's why you have to grab onto
those special moments whenever they come along.
