Ricoh releases super fast Caplio R1 digital camera.
To date the greatest detraction for digital camera enthusiasts is the long time it takes for the lens to properly focus and snap its subject.

The four Megapixel camera features a world first 'pendulum' retracting lens system that allows the R1 to focus and snap in just 0.05 of a second.
