The LX-22 is a fixed focus point-and-shoot camera for 35mm film, introduced by Japanese manufacturer Ricoh in 1992. A version with a data back was also available, and it was sold as the LX-22 Date. The model named LX-22S is a variant model featuring a transparent body shell and colorfully painted internal components, which was released a year later in 1993 and manufactured limited numbers. This see-through camera is also known as the XOBBOX. Although its body shell is transparent, it can literally take pictures; the film chamber itself is not see-through and is safely sealed from external light.
- Predecessor Model: L-20 / YF-20 Super / One Take Easy II (1989)

This article also needs photographs of the LX-22S or the XOBBOX in addition to the original black LX-22. You can help Camera-wiki.org by adding some. See adding images for help.
