Firstly, in this mode, whenever you press the shutter button, the camera takes two pictures simultaneously—one with the flash turned off and the other with the flash turned on. Moreover, this functionality allows you to focus on composing your shot without the need to adjust the flash settings. In addition, you can seamlessly concentrate on achieving the perfect composition without any interruptions or distractions. High-speed Face Detection function to capture as many as 32 faces in focus in approximately 0.03 seconds (minimum); Smile Capture function to automatically release the shutter when the subject’s smile is detected

Smile Capture, Self-portrait Assist, Self-portrait Assist + Smile Capture, Blink Detection Curiously, the WG-80 omits any type of wireless connectivity. It's a head-scratching choice because on-the-go image transfer via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi has been standard on cameras for years. We drop-tested and dunked the WG-80 in the sink, but didn't have the opportunity to take it out for any underwater imaging. The camera can survive at depths of up to 46 feet, withstand up to 220lb-ft of pressure, work at temperatures as low as 14 degrees Fahrenheit, and shake off drops from heights of up to 5.2 feet. 6.1mm (34mm full-frame), f/4.6, 1/400-second, ISO 125

Resolution is an underwhelming 230k dots, much lower than what we'd expect from a quality camera. Brightness is pretty decent, despite the issues with glare. Ricoh includes a sunny day option that ups the exposure of your preview but doesn't otherwise pump up the screen brightness. But, indoors and with fast-moving subjects, even a mid-level smartphone will get better results. The Ricoh WG-80 only has a 1 fps burst at full resolution, making action photography difficult. That’s the biggest disappointment to me since the rugged build would, in theory, be great for photographing skiers, water skiers, and other water-filled, drop-likely action. In limited light, images get grainy pretty fast. Recording capacity shows approximate number of shots recorded during CIPA-compliant testing. Actual performance may vary depending on operating conditions. One alternative to the WG-80 would be the Ricoh WG-6. This waterproof point-and-shoot camera came out in early 2019 and features many of the same favorable components as the WG-80 such as the macro capabilities and six-LED macro light. Although it’s older, the camera is very close in price and has a few upgrades. On the top, there is a dedicated mode dial instead of pressing a button and cycling through an on-screen menu. It’s also 20 megapixels and can shoot 4K video. The rear display is a touch larger at 3 inches versus 2.7 inches, but the pixel resolution is much better at 1.04-million-dots versus 230,000 dots.x 1080 @ 30p, MOV, H.264, Linear PCM1280 x 720 @ 120p, MOV, H.264, Linear PCM1280 x 720 @ 60p, MOV, H.264, Linear PCM1280 x 720 @ 30p, MOV, H.264, Linear PCM

As is the case with many camera categories, there are fewer ruggedized cameras on sale today compared with a few years ago. Nikon and Fujifilm have both left the space, while Canon, Panasonic, and Sony haven't made a tough camera in years. 5mm (28mm full-frame), f/4.2, 1/160-second, ISO 125 Regarding sensor size, I started off with the Nikon AW120, then moved on to the SeaLife DC2000 : A 1" sensor really is a noticeable improvement over the tiny sensors and the strobe/LED combo suffices for most recreational diving. Lost the SeaLife and now use my full frame camera which is another world again because of the full controls and interchangeable lenses. And the focus hunting on the SeaLife was atrocious.Furthermore, even during regular macro photography, the LED lamps automatically illuminate the subject, ensuring optimal lighting conditions. This feature is particularly advantageous as it allows you to shoot from an incredibly close distance of just 1 cm (0.03ft), granting you the ability to capture subjects in unprecedented proximity—an opportunity not easily replicated by SLR or smartphone cameras.
