Product Overview

Ricoh WG-70 is a 1/2.3" compact action camera designed to handle the environments. Introduced by Ricoh in 2020, it comes with a 1/2.3" sensor with 16 MP (4608 x 3456) resolution.
The camera has a poor battery life, and a second or third battery may be needed to get you through the day. One should note that the Ricoh WG-70 has a 125 base ISO, which is not conducive to getting the cleanest images.
The Ricoh WG-70 comes with 9 autofocus points. Last but not least, the camera can focus quite close to the subject.
