Pentax Optio WG-1 Digital Camera in Black

The rugged and tough Pentax Optio WG-1 is a high performance compact digital camera that is equally at home in ordinary situations. It is full of useful features like LED illumination for close-ups and Face Detection.

  • 10m Waterproof
  • 1.5m Shockproof
  • -10°C Freezeproof
  • 100kg Crushproof


  • 14 Megapixels
    Impressive 14 megapixel resolution means that crisp image details are recorded and can be reproduced under strong enlargement such as when printing onto posters or canvases etc.

    5x Optical Zoom
    Enclosed totally within the camera body is a 5x zoom lens which covers the equivalent of 28-140mm on a 35mm camera. This includes both full wide angle and telephoto perspectives so you can record anything from an indoor group photo to action at the other end of a football field.

    Digital Microscope
    This innovative mode makes the most of the 1cm close-up shooting capability and uses the five LED Macro Lights on the front of the camera to illuminate your subject. See the world as never before! The job is made easier still by the inclusion of a dedicated macro stand.

    HD Movies
    Take the WG1 where most camcorders can’t go. You don’t need to worry about sacrificing quality either because it can record in 720p HD quality. A micro-HDMI terminal is included too so that with an optional cable you can view your movie creations on any HDTV.

    Portrait Features
    Has Face Detection and Self-portrait Assist – Face Detection can pick out 32 faces (even dogs and cats) within a frame and give the best possible focus and exposure. For Self-portrait Assist, the front mounted LEDs will blink to confirm your delightful visage is centred within the image area.

    Shake Reduction
    Features three modes for different situations:

    • Pixel Track SR (Digital Shake Reduction)
    • Up to ISO 6400 in High Sensitivity Anti-Shake Mode – effectively freezes the action
    • Movie SR with exclusive software


    Additional Features

    • 2.7” LCD with Anti-Reflection coating
    • Carabiner Strap Included
    • Auto Picture Mode from 16 scene types
    • Collage Function, Ink Rubbing Filter
    • 12 Digital Filters – including miniature filter
    • Digital Wide function (21mm equiv from 2 combined images)
    • Useful image view, edit and file software
    • Eye-Fi wireless memory card compatible

Good Points
Its a good allround camera. that can record position with gps.
Bad Points
When you select gps "on" even when you turn the camera off the gps is still on and using power, so flattening the battery. You just need to remember to select gps "off" when switching off for more than a few mins.
