Ricoh WG-6 Orange compact camera

Ricoh WG-6 Orange Compact camera - for the active adventurer

The Ricoh WG-6 is a top of the range waterproof digital compact camera, with a submersion depth of up to 20 metres and a drop resistance of just over two metres, a crush resistance of 100kgv (kilogram force) and a lowest operating temperature of -10°C.

The 20-megapixel CMOS image sensor is backlit and the powerful image processor ensures high-resolution still images and 4K video (3840 x 2160 pixels, 30 fps).

The compact WG-6 packs a range of innovative features, including the Handheld Night Snap function, which combines multiple images into a single blur-free composite image for easy night shooting.

The new Movie SR+ function works like a gimbal to stabilise HD video (720p).

The built-in LED ring light provides even illumination.

With a 5x zoom lens and 28-140mm focal length equivalence, the camera has a one centimetre minimum focusing distance for a wide range of uses from close-ups to landscapes.

The large and accurate 3″ LCD screen (1,040,000 pixels) is coated with a reflection-repellent coating.

The GPS and electronic compass conveniently record the location and the shooting route taken.
