Ricoh KR-30 SP (XR-20 SP)

The Ricoh KR-30 SP (XR-20 SP) was a standard 35mm film camera introduced by Ricoh in 1985. As a mid-range consumer model, it featured typical functionality of its era, including an electronically-controlled shutter and automatic exposure modes. The camera likely had a compact plastic construction with basic manual controls, aimed at amateur photographers seeking an affordable yet reliable point-and-shoot option with some creative control. Its dual naming suggests regional variations in marketing but doesn't indicate any special technological distinction from other similar cameras of the period.
