I love Ricoh rugged cameras

As a longtime Pentax fan (I've lost count of how many I've had), I love the color quality and durability. I started buying the WG series many years ago and keep updating it. I don't update them because they wear out (sell or give away), but because newer models have new features, improved looks, and more durable construction. This one goes deeper, withstands harder drops and has better playback than previous models. I keep one in my computer bag so I can take pictures if I see anything interesting. Just to give you an idea of the durability - I've never had my lens scratched despite being in a crowded bag, never had mechanical issues and have taken some really good underwater photos. On the plus side, Ricoh has kept the same battery model across the range, so my investment in spare batteries is good. If you want a great underwater camera (up to 60ft or so) and drop proof (6ft or so) camera, this is the one for you.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
