  • Key Specs
    • Image Sensor Size: 2/3” (8.6 x 6.6 mm)
    • Effective Pixels: 20 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
  • General
    • Product Name: WG-6 20mp Waterproof Digital Camera
    • Brand: Ricoh
    • Model Number: 03843
    • Digital Camera Type: Point and Shoot Cameras
  • Imaging
    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
    • Image Sensor Size: 2/3” (8.6 x 6.6 mm)
    • Digital Zoom: 8x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
  • Focus
    • Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
    • Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): true (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
  • Exposure Control
    • Shutter Speeds: 1/4000 to 4 Seconds (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
    • Effective Pixels: 20 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
  • Flash
    • Integrated Flash: true
  • Compatibility
    • Memory Card Compatibility: Secure Digital, Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC), Secure Digital Extended Capacity (SDXC) (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)
  • Features
    • Integrated GPS: Yes
  • Connectivity
    • Wireless Connectivity: WiFi (The manner in which a device sends data to another device over a short distance without the use of wires or cables.)
    • PictBridge Enabled: false (PictBridge allows digital cameras, camcorders and other image capture devices to connect and print directly to photo printers and other output devices without using a computer.)
  • Power
    • Rechargeable Battery: true
  • Performance
    • Maximum Height of Shock Resistance: 6.8 feet (Maximum height from which the product can be dropped and resist some degree of damage from impact.)
  • Included
    • Camera Bag/Case Included: false

• The Ricoh WG-6 pairs a rugged physical design with versatile imaging capabilities and an enhanced feature set to complement its use in harsh conditions. Featuring a 20MP BSI CMOS sensor, high-resolution stills shooting and UHD 4K30 video recording are possible, and an ISO 125-6400 sensitivity range benefits working in various lighting conditions. Its durable exterior construction renders it waterproof to depths of 65.6', shockproof from heights of 6.6' as well as freezeproof, crushproof, and dustproof. In regard to imaging capabilities, the WG-6 features a 20MP BSI CMOS sensor, which enables high-resolution stills shooting, a sensitivity range from ISO 125-6400, and UHD 4K30 video recording as well as Movie SR+ and Movie SR stabilization modes to help steady video footage. A 5x optical zoom lens covers a wide-angle to telephoto 28-140mm equivalent range for photographing a wide array of subject types. Surrounding the lens is an LED ring light, which incorporates six individual LEDs, to produce bright and even lighting when photographing close-up subjects. Ten brightness levels are available to adjust the light output, the lighting pattern can be configured, and an enhanced Digital Microscope mode enables close focusing to 0.4". The ring light can be used for construction-site photos that clearly show cracks in concrete and other fine details. Enhanced for greater accuracy, the integrated GPS module corresponds to the latest satellite navigation augmentation system, SBAS. QZSS is also supported for quick activation—approximately 1 minute from shut-down or 3 seconds from standby—and a dedicated GPS button is featured within the four-way controller for recording location information to images by the GPS memory function. The WG-6 has a selection of 18 scene modes which allows the camera to adjust aperture, shutter speed, and other settings to suit the subject. With the outdoor view setting, you can monitor brightness can be increased by up to 2 steps to make dark areas of the display easier to see in sunlight, or lowered by up to 2 steps to reduce glare for night photography. Additionally, the WG-6 incorporates a bright 3.0" 1.04m-dot AR-coated LCD monitor, an LED ring light to benefit photographing close-up subjects, and a high-accuracy GPS module to permit embedding location information within your image files.

  • High Resolution Images with Excellent low-light Performance: Equipped with the latest technology, the CMOS sensor works well at high sensitivities and an image processing engine that excels at noise reduction. An effective 20MP ensures that details show clearly even at night or in dark environments.
  • Durable Design: Waterproof-rated to depths of 65.6' (IPX8/JIS Class 8-equivalent), Tough body with 6.8’ impact resistance; Freezeproof to 14°F; Dustproof to protect internal components.
  • Outstanding Macro Performance: The WG-6 provides outstanding macro performance allowing you shoot close-ups from as little as 10cm for high-resolution photos that capture every detail of your subject. Perfect for photo records of precision machinery or wherever extreme detail is needed.
  • A Powerful, Adjustable Ring Light: Equipped with 6 powerful, adjustable LED’s that can selectively turned on or off, perfect for low-light macro photos or high resolution shots of fine details. Brightness can be adjusted according to distance preventing loss of detail in highlights.
  • Worksite Ready: Featuring a secure grip, bigger buttons that can be used with gloves on, and a customizable ADJ button that can be used to quickly view and change core settings. User modes offer a hassle-free way to optimize settings specific to the job for ease of use.
