Quick review
- The good
- Handling, LCD, low ISO image quality, easy to use, features, build, auto level indication
- The bad
- No optical viewfinder, high ISO image noise, complex menu system
- Verdict
- Ricoh’s new CX1 features some unique new kit that combine to help create a rather special little digital compact. Image quality is excellent at lower ISOs and the high-resolution screen helps compensate for the lack of an optical viewfinder: a cracking little camera that’s worth every penny

- SD, SDHC
