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

The Ricoh WG-6 is a lightweight digital camera built for rugged, all-weather adventures and tough working conditions. It boasts a 20MP BSI CMOS image sensor with over 16 million effective pixels, which promises improved low-light performance and superior resolution. Its compact body houses the revolutionary Ricoh 5x Optical Zoom Lens with a maximum aperture of 2.0, as well as the revolutionary Shake Reduction sensor for supreme image and video stabilization. These features deliver superior image processing when capturing nighttime scenery and fast-moving subjects. The camera automatically recognizes and sets the optimal shooting mode for each scene, further enhancing its mobility and operability. Set it to Underwater Mode when diving to capture vibrant aquatic scenery; switch it to Landscape Mode for crisp outdoor scenes; or see beyond the naked eye with the Digital Microscope Mode. The camera’s tough chassis is shock- and crush-proof and can withstand water, freezing conditions, and dust, while its chemical resistance makes it a handy tool in industrial and construction settings. An added perk is the built-in GPS module, which accurately links each image or video to the exact location it was taken. The Ricoh WG-6 is available in two stylish colors: sleek black and funky orange.
The RICOH WG series is well known for its tough design, but with the RICOH WG-6 we acheived a waterproof performance down to 14m, and shock proof against falls from height of 1.6m.
The WG-6 comes with over 20 different scene modes that will automatically adjust the camara settings for best results.
Uncompromising water, shock, dust, and freeze protection. Approximately 20 effective megapixel for sharp, high-resolution, low-noise images with a wide dynamic range. Camera body of tough aluminum-panel chassis equipped with high-precision GPS, a powerful LED Ring Light, and electronic gimbal stabilization.
