Ricoh has announced its new aim and shoot compact digital camera – the CX1. It features a 7.1x optical wide-angle zoom lens. The Dynamic Range Double Shot mode captures two images with different exposure rates and combines the best of the two for a high-quality composite picture.

You can also take seven shots of the same scene with each shot having a separate focus. You can then choose the one you wish to keep or use Photoshop and get all the best-focused elements in a single pic. The CX1 can segment white balance in a single picture based on difference in amount of light from a light source for different parts of an image. The Ricoh CX1 compact digital camera has a large 3.0-inch 920,000-dot VGA monitor.

The new image processing engine Smooth Imaging Engine IV enables greater image resolution and noise reduction. Videos can be captured at 120fps so if you are a slow-mo addict then this is a neat feature for you. The macro feature lets you get as close as 1 cm to the object for a wide-angle photo and 25 cm for a telephoto.

The camera is scheduled for a mid-March release for around 299 Pounds.
