In
this multimedia age, "image" information
comprises everything from still images and movie
clips to text and sound. Ricoh's Image Communication
strategy pursues superior imaging and appliance
ease based on open standards for individuals and
groups in all office environments. We call the
RDC-7 an Image Capturing Device because it is
much more than a camera. It delivers an unrivaled
array of advanced, user-friendly technologies
and solutions so you can record, creatively process,
and output all types of image information. |

A
3.3-megapixel CCD delivers photo-real resolution
up to 7 million pixels The RDC-7 has burst through
the two megapixel barrier with a 3.3-megapixel
CCD that redefines digital photography by delivering
new levels of clarity and color contrast. In Pro
Mode, you can double resolution up to a whopping
7 megapixels. |

-
Pro L and
H work only with stationary subjects, with
the camera fixed on a tripod.
-
Pro Mode
usage increases processing time to 35-70
seconds per frame. (Excluding Non-compressed
Mode)
|
There
are three Pro Mode options-all based on Ricoh's
innovative Image Enhancement Technology. Pro-L
mode shifts the CCD by one pixel to take two shots
that a Ricoh-developed algorithm composes into
one image. This boosts resolution and definition
by 20% without increasing image size. The default
Pro Mode uses a Ricoh-developed interpolation
algorithm that eliminates "jaggies" when the output
resolution increases to 7 megapixels. The resulting
image size is 3,072 x 2,304 pixels. Pro-H mode
raises output resolution to a maximum 7 megapixels
by simultaneously incorporating both the default
Pro and Pro-L modes. |
The
RDC-7 boasts a host of innovative lens technologies
that make it stand out from the competitive crowd
by delivering the finest possible resolution and
image quality in an incredibly compact design.
The F2.6 7.3-21.9mm optical zoom lens is equivalent
to a 35-105mm focal length on regular 35mm cameras.
The lens comprises high-quality optical glass
that Ricoh fashioned and finished using proprietary
polishing and coating technologies. The glass
minimizes light dispersion and has a high refractive
index. There are 10 glass elements in seven groups,
with three aspherical lenses. The proprietary
varifocal zoom system comprises one stationary
and three moving groups to optimize resolution.
A Ricoh-developed alignment adjustment system
optimizes zoom performance. This system provides
200mm/line resolution across the zoom range, helping
the CCD optimize crispness and color reproduction
in Pro Mode. Ricoh's achievements in regular 35mm
compact camera lenses contribute to the RDC-7's
trim proportions. A relay viewfinder enhances
slimness, while a spiral gear ensures ultrasilent
zooming. |
