PENTAX WG-3 digital compact camera – Jun 05, 2013– Tokyo, Japan (Techreleased) – PENTAX RICOH IMAGING COMPANY, LTD. is pleased to announce the addition of the new White Blue model to the PENTAX WG-3 lineup. Launched in March 2013, this digital compact camera provides easy, worry-free photo shooting in all kinds of outdoor activities, thanks to its dependable waterproof construction.
PENTAX WG-3 White Blue
The WG-3 is a rugged, outdoor-friendly digital compact camera. It has an outstanding waterproof construction that allows underwater shooting down to a depth of 14 meters, and excellent shock-resistant performance to withstand a fall from a height of two meters. It also assures exceptional image quality, thanks to the combination of a newly designed, four-times zoom lens with a large maximum aperture of F2.0; a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor with solid performance in high-sensitivity shooting; and a state-of-the-art imaging engine. The WG-3 has been well received by active photographers for its effortless operation and outstanding specifications — perfect for all types of outdoor activities and sports events.
The new White Blue model features a vibrant white body, accentuated by a vivid blue trim that hints at the ocean in summer. Its aluminum-alloy front panel has been treated with a meticulous hairline finish to add a silvery sparkle to the beautiful, brilliant body. The body edge has been given a matte-black coating, both to further emphasize the brilliance of the bright-colored body, and to strengthen the sense of toughness of this outdoor imaging tool.
