Although the Ricoh Caplio 400G Wide is billed as “waterproof,” it’s probably a little more realistic to think of it as “water resistant,” since we’re only talking depths of up a meter. Still, the slightly-ruggedized 3.2-megapixel camera has some nice entoughenings, like a reinforced glass dust protector on the lens, rubber bolstering on open parts and buttons, and pictures of a seven-person emergency four-season tent, stocked with the hottest cocoa, stored on its memory card. Maybe. Other than that, the 400G is essentially a waterproofed version of the Ricoh Caplio G4, which is a fairly solid camera, itself, so if you’ve been wanting something you can take camping or hiking or puddle diving, Photography Blog’s review might help you figure out if the 400G is right for you.
