Easy to use- pretty logical arrangement of functions
nice design, really compact
The automatic setting on the Ricoh Caplio R6 is only good for a fairly bright day with no abnormal conditions. The flash is useless when it comes to taking photos in even slightly darker conditions (it can't even manage early dusk outside) so avoid evenings with friends, parties or anywhere with slightly subdued lighting as your people will end up over exposed with a very dark background. Night time is an impossibility, you won't be able to see anyone in the image.
Manual white balance doesn't work well. It doesn't do what it's meant to.
The 'irodio' software is pretty useless too Don't be fooled by the lovely large lens, or the apparent simplicity of function. There's no such thing as a spontaneous photo with this camera, you'll have to try every other setting before you end up with an even vaguely passable image.
