Catch My Moment

I wonder what fun little surprises are out there waiting for me today.

If I take my camera out with that kind of attitude, 

I know the way I look at the things around me will change somehow.

I relax, loosen up, and let my heart take over as I press the shutter. 

And the picture that emerges is sure to capture the scene that moved me.

Casual, creative, compact—the CX5. 

Good opportunities don't just sit around waiting for you. 

That's why you have to grab onto 

those special moments whenever they come along. 

Ricoh CX5
