Sharply reproduce worksite conditions and even words written on
a blackboard. Even after cropping, images remain crisp and vivid.
For reliable photography even in dark sites such as tunnel
interiors, the G700 has a built-in flash with a range of 10 m
for wide-angle and 6.2 m for telephoto. With high-sensitivity
ISO 3200, the G700 can also shoot in situations where flash
cannot be used.
The accessory shoe (conforms to JIS B7101) makes it possible
to shoot with commercially available flash units*. This further
expands the scenes which can be photographed.
The focal length is fixed to 2.5 m and ISO sensitivity is raised
to enable shooting of clear photographs in the difficult
conditions for autofocus at the scene of a fire. Sharpness
processing is also done to give the still images a sharper feel.
By just pressing the ADJ. (adjust)
button, you can easily specify exposure
compensation, ISO sensitivity, and
other settings.
With the mode dial you can easily
switch between CALS mode, auto
shooting mode, My Settings mode (for
registration of frequently used
shooting settings), and scene mode (firefighting, skew
correction, etc.). In CALS mode, you can select from six
picture size and quality settings ranging from 5M 4:3 F to
VGA 4:3 F .
The G700 supports the SanDisk Corporation SD WORM (write
once read many) card. Since deletes, changes, and card
initialization cannot be done, these cards can be used in place of
film for original documents when recording
police, fire department, and defense-related
scenes where data reliability might be questioned.
When stored under suitable conditions, the data
can be preserved for about 100 years.
By defining a password, you can lock the camera. In addition to
locking the camera as a whole or internal memory playback,
you can also limit use to SD WORM cards or just restrict
setting changes. The locks and restrictions can be removed
through password entry with a software keyboard or bar code.
When an image is not enough, up to 20 text or voice
information fields can be recorded as memos together with the
photograph. Selection from multiple memos (up to 99 files) is
possible, and memos can also be recorded in internal memory.
The reading of one and two dimensional bar codes is
supported. The saving of bar codes as camera memos can be
useful for freight management in logistics, prevention of
patient data mix-ups in medical facilities, etc.

The G700 has a high-accuracy image edit detection function
to increase data reliability when digital photographs are
submitted as evidence. The RSA encryption method is used
to make it possible to detect editing with respect to the
entire image. By loading the image onto a PC using the EC1
software provided, it is possible to make highly accurate
judgments on image edition.
The G700 is compliant with the PictBridge
industry standard for printing by connecting
camera and printer. If you connect the G700
to a compatible printer, you can print
directly without using a personal computer.
If you connect the G700 to a Ricoh-compatible printer, it is
possible to print out images in easy-to-use form layouts. For
details, please see the Ricoh website.

function that takes two exposures at high speed with the
differences being calculated. It is a powerful tool when
shooting in low light and when shooting telephoto.

SECURE
* SD WORM cards can be purchased from SanDisk Corporation
agents that supply corporate customers.
*A flash with both a slave flash function
and a pre-flash support function should
be used. It is not possible to use units
without a spring or lock mechanism or
units on which synchronization with the
pre-flash cannot be cancelled.
Furthermore, the accessory shoe does
not support a synchronizer contact.

Despite its small size and light weight, the G700 has strengthened
glass at the lens front surface and body protectors added at
strategic points. This toughness enabled it to withstand 2.0 m
drops in 26 positions (6 surfaces, 8 corners, and 12 edges) in
testing conforming to US Department of Defense MIL Standard
810F. Furthermore, it also passes this test with the power on.
Toughness for the most
demanding sites
Approximately 360 pictures* can be taken with
the rechargeable battery provided. The
dissipation of battery power can be reduced by
specifying synchro monitor mode, which turns
the picture display off when the camera is not being operated.
With the wide, durable neck strap, you
can suspend the camera diagonally,
and it can also be suspended vertically
from the neck to allow for easy storage
in a breast pocket.
Dust resistance, at JIS/IEC dustproof protection grade 6,
guards against infiltration by dust and sand. The G700 can
also shoot in cold environments, with cold resistance able to
handle temperatures down to -10°C.
You can also attach commercially available 37 mm diameter filters,
which are effective for preventing lens scratching and condensation.
Water resistance is rated at JIS/IEC waterproof protection
grade 8 so the G700 can handle two hours of underwater
photography at a depth of 5 m. In addition to use at wet
sites, the G700 can also be used for shooting in the rain, and
it can be washed in water if it gets dirty.
The G700 can be disinfected with ethanol or sodium
hypochlorite, which has been approved as a food additive
disinfectant. So it can be safely used in medical facilities
and production facilities.
In addition to the high-capacity rechargeable
battery included, the G700 can also be powered
with readily available AAA-size alkaline
batteries. With these batteries, approximately 40
shots* can be taken. So you can quickly recover from the
battery depletion that can occur in periods of long use.
