Ricoh's 1995 long-zoom 35mm compact — 38-130mm f/4.5-9.5, seven-zone passive AF, DX coding, motorised film handling.

The Ricoh RZ-3000 was a 35mm autofocus zoom compact released in 1995, sitting at the long-zoom end of Ricoh's RZ point-and-shoot series above models such as the RZ-750 and RZ-900. A date-back version was sold as the RZ-3000S, and the camera is otherwise a typical well-appointed mid-1990s zoom compact.

The lens is a 38-130mm f/4.5-9.5 multi-coated zoom with aspherical elements (six elements in three groups). Focusing uses a passive multi-AF system with seven zones plus an AF assist light in low light, working from about 1m to infinity. Shutter speeds run from 2s to 1/330s, film speed is read by DX coding from ISO 50 to 3200, and a built-in auto flash, self-timer and motorised advance and rewind complete the spec. Power comes from 3V lithium cells and the body weighs about 295g.

It suits shooters who want more reach than the usual 35-70mm compacts of the era, with the standard trade-off: the lens gets very slow at the tele end, so flash or fast film is essential indoors. Handling is straightforward point-and-shoot with a chunky mid-90s body that still fits a jacket pocket.

The camera needs working lithium batteries to fire at all, so test power-up, zoom travel, flash charge and film advance before relying on it. Check the LCD panel for faded segments, the film door for light-seal wear, and listen for a healthy motor on rewind — tired drive motors are a common failure on 1990s zoom compacts.
