Product details

The Pentax WG-8 is your companion for breathtaking underwater shots and unforgettable adventures. Thanks to its excellent water resistance and the ability to capture up to two hours of uninterrupted underwater images, it keeps pace with you no matter where your journey takes you.

With its backlit CMOS image sensor and a powerful image processing module, the WG-8 captures detailed, high-resolution images of up to 20 megapixels, even in challenging lighting conditions. The Super-Resolution technology ensures razor-sharp shots, while the Handheld Night Mode minimizes blurriness and provides clear images at night.

Dive up to 20 meters deep and capture your experiences without compromising image quality. The WG-8 is not only waterproof but also shockproof from a height of 2.1 meters and can withstand loads of up to 100 kgf, ensuring it endures your adventures unscathed.

Choose from 18 scene modes and 12 digital filters to unleash your creativity and give each photo a personal touch. The 3.0-inch LCD monitor with a wide viewing angle allows for comfortable image composition and viewing, whether you're underwater or on land.

The Pentax WG-8 is an essential tool for adventurers who want to capture their experiences in the best quality. Explore the world with the WG-8 and document every moment, no matter how challenging the conditions are.
