Review Summary

It's ok. Hard to use when snorkeling. I couldn't see the screen so I did a lot of guessing. I hope to try it out in a pool soon and I have night hopes it will be a better tool than it is in the ocean.

This camera has some serious limitations. There is no way to set the exposure time, so it's virtually useless for fast-moving subjects. Colors, at least on the default settings, are not very vivid. The loss of detail in pictures taken in low light (even with the flash) is extreme. Overall, focus seems on the soft side. Exposure compensation is buried in the menus, so adjusting it quickly is not possible. On the other hand, the ability to focus at very close distances is quite good. The built-in GPS and compass are very nice to have. The build quality seems very solid. I have not used any of the video functions, so I cannot speak to them. I bought this camera primarily to take underwater pictures while snorkeling. For me, its ultimate value will be if it succeeds at this task. For any other task, I believe there are better choices at lower prices.

Came exactly as described. I purchased in order to not take my more expensive dslrs to sandy and wet places, beaches etc. it does not shoot in RAW but I knew that before purchasing. I also wanted to use it for snorkeling and it was great for that as well as under water fun pool shots. Nice dry shots as well my only regret is there is no manual other than on line?.I prefer tangible manuals and at 130 pages it will cost a lot of ink to print

About The WG-6 Digital Camera, Black
After rigorous testing and refinement, the Ricoh WG-6 emerges as an all-weather, extreme compact camera designed to withstand the most challenging conditions. This black digital camera is the epitome of durability, boasting a waterproof depth of 20m (65ft), shock resistance from heights of 2.1m (6ft), freeze-proof capabilities to -10°C (14°F), and crushproof strength up to 100 kgf (220 lbs). The WG-6 stands as the pinnacle of resilience in the WG series, making it the ideal choice for adventurers and professionals alike, from avid outdoor enthusiasts to construction and civil engineering experts.
The WG-6's rugged body design is complemented by advanced camera performance. With approximately 20 effective megapixels and a 5x optical zoom that spans a 28mm to 140mm range, this camera captures crisp, low-noise images with a wide dynamic range, courtesy of its high-performance lens and back-illuminated CMOS sensor. For those seeking even broader perspectives, an optional wide conversion lens is available, enhancing the camera's versatility.
A standout feature of the WG-6 is its multifunctional LED Ring Light, which encircles the lens with 6 variable brightness LEDs, significantly brighter than its predecessor, the WG-60. These LEDs can be adjusted across 10 increments, providing optimal illumination for close-up photography, including food and portraits. The LED Ring Light also includes a white balance mode, ensuring accurate color reproduction in your images.
The WG-6's operability is meticulously designed for ease of use, even in harsh conditions. The new ADJ button allows for quick access to frequently used camera functions, which can be customized to suit each photographer's preferences. The camera's mode dial enables swift shooting mode changes, while the raised contours of the four-way controller facilitate button presses, even with gloves on.
For business and industrial applications, the WG-6 shares various functions with Ricoh's "G Series" cameras. Its chemical resistance allows for disinfection with ethanol, sodium hypochlorite, and chlorine dioxide, further solidifying its suitability for professional use in demanding environments.
When it comes to video capture, the WG-6 excels with high-quality 4K videos at 30fps. Its underwater video mode is specifically optimized for capturing the vivid hues of the aquatic world. The camera also features an Electronic Gimbal (Movie SR+), which provides natural, less distorted shake reduction by actively clipping the frame, offering a choice between conventional Movie SR and the new Movie SR+ based on the shooting scenario.
Equipped with a high-accuracy GPS system, the WG-6 ensures precise location tagging for your images. It supports the latest satellite navigation augmentation system (SBAS) and the Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS), guaranteeing quick activation times and accurate geotagging with a dedicated GPS button.
In summary, the Ricoh WG-6 Digital Camera in black is a compact, high-resolution powerhouse, perfect for capturing life's adventures in stunning detail. Its rugged construction, advanced imaging capabilities, and thoughtful design make it a top choice for anyone seeking a reliable camera that can keep up with their active lifestyle and professional demands.
