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

Take your photography to new heights with the Ricoh WG-6 Digital Camera Bundle. This all-weather, extreme compact camera is designed to withstand the harshest conditions, making it an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and professionals working in challenging environments like construction sites or civil engineering projects.
The WG-6, the most rugged camera in the WG series, boasts an impressive durability due to its latest updates. Available in two color options, black and orange, this camera features a rugged body design that is waterproof up to 20m (65ft), shockproof from a height of 2.1m (6ft), freezeproof down to -10½J (14F), and crushproof up to 100 kgf (22lb).
With approximately 20 effective megapixels and a 5x optical zoom covering a 28mm - 140mm range, the WG-6 delivers advanced camera performance. Its high-performance lens and back-illuminated CMOS sensor produce clear, low-noise images with a wide dynamic range. The camera also offers GPS capability and an optional wide conversion lens.
The WG-6 features a multifunctional LED Ring Light surrounding the lens, equipped with 6 variable brightness LEDs, perfect for any user environment. These lights are ideal for food and portrait images, and are 10x brighter than the WG-60, with adjustable brightness in 10 increments.
Designed for easy operation even in harsh conditions, the WG-6's rugged exterior includes a new ADJ button for instant access to frequently used camera functions. The camera's settings can be easily reassigned to reflect the most used buttons for each individual shooter. The newly equipped dial allows for quick switching between shooting modes, while the raised contours of the four-way controller make buttons easy to press, even when wearing gloves.
The WG-6 is also suitable for business and industrial uses, sharing various functions with the Ricoh 'G Series' camera for industrial use. The camera has a chemical resistance, allowing for ethanol disinfection, sodium hypochlorite disinfection, and chloride dioxide, making it perfect for use at construction sites.
The WG-6 shoots high-quality 4k videos at 30fps, with underwater video optimized for subsurface colors. The camera contains an Electronic Gimbal (Movie SR+), which reduces shake by actively clipping the frame, not just the shooting range.
The WG-6 also features a high-accuracy GPS system, corresponding to the latest satellite navigation augmentation system (SBAS). With quick activation times and an allocated GPS button on the four-way controller, this camera can record location information in the images by the GPS memory function.
This bundle includes a camera case, 64GB SDXC U3 Camera, table top tripod, spare battery, cleaning kit, memory wallet, card reader, foam strap, and software package, providing everything you need to capture stunning photos and videos in any environment.
