Ricoh Pentax WG-90 Digital Camera (Black)

Despite its compact, lightweight housing, the new WG-90 guarantees outstanding reliability and functionality even under harsh conditions.

The digital compact camera is waterproof to a depth of 14 metres, shockproof for drops of up to 1.6 metres and frost-proof at temperatures as low as -10°C. This makes it a reliable companion on adventures where ordinary cameras are better kept protected. 

Featuring outstanding waterproof and shock-resistant performance and a host of user-friendly shooting functions in a compact, lightweight body.
The PENTAX WG-90 is the latest compact camera with outstanding features such as shock and water resistance, and many special features and functions

Heavy-duty construction assuring underwater shooting down to 14 meters, for up to two hours of continuous operation
The WG-90’s solid, airtight body is not only waterproof down to a depth of 14 meters for up to two hours of continuous operation (equivalent to IPX 8 or JIS Class 8), but is also shockproof against a fall from a height of 1.6 meters,* and dustproof (equivalent to IP6X or JIS Class 6), freeze-proof to tem-peratures as low as -10°C, and crushproof against weights up to 100kgf (kilogram force).** Thanks to this heavy-duty construction, the WG-90 performs superbly and dependably even in harsh, demand-ing outdoor conditions.

Exceptional image quality
The WG-90 is equipped with a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor, which assures excellent high-sensitivity and low-noise characteristics and high-speed readout of image data signals. Coupled with a high-performance imaging engine, this image sensor delivers a top sensitivity of ISO 6400 and super-high-resolution images with approximately 16.0 effective megapixels. It also provides advanced image processing functions, made possible by super-resolution technology, to deliver sharper, clearer, high-er-resolution images. It even offers such innovative shooting features as Handheld Night Snap mode, which automatically produces a single, blur-free composite image using several images of the same nighttime scene.

5X optical zoom lens with a 28mm wide-angle coverage
The WG-90 features a high-performance, five-times optical zoom lens with a focal-length coverage from 5mm to 25mm (equivalent to approx. 28mm to 140mm in the 35mm format) to accommodate a wide range of scenes and subjects, including sweeping landscapes. It also provides other user-friendly shooting functions such as: the Intelligent Zoom function that extends the zoom range by ap-proximately 36 times**** (equivalent to 1008mm in the 35mm format) for super-high-magnification telephotography without compromising image quality; and an interval shooting mode that comes in handy for fixed point photography.
