Ricoh WG-6 tough action compact camera
Ricoh WG-6 tough action compact camera
The Ricoh WG-6 is a durable digital compact camera suitable for both photos and 4K videos, featuring a lens with 6 LED lights for efficient close-up photography with minimised movements. Capable of photographing and filming up to 20 meters underwater and enduring temperatures as low as -10 degrees, it is shock-resistant and survives a 2-meter drop, making it ideal for active activities. With 18 scene options, customisable settings, and a 5x optical zoom lens with a 28mm wide-angle range, the camera caters to versatile shooting scenarios. Backside Illumination technology enhances image quality by providing higher light output, lower noise, and a larger dynamic range. The 'Handheld Night Snap mode' function automates capturing multiple images from the same night scene, creating a sharp composition image for improved low-light performance.
