Chronology of cameras Ricoh

Not yet translated into English

Ce modèle est construit en métal, avec une sobriété élégante. Pas d'esthétisme biscornu, ni de boutons dans tous les coins; l'utilisation est simple, et les résultats obtenus sont bons. L'objectif montre un peu trop de distorsion, alors que les focales n'ont rien d'extrême.
Parmi les originalités, on relève la protection de l'écran arrière par un volet couplé au bouton d'allumage.
