The all-weather camera is designed for adventures

 

A heavy-duty body for solid protection against water, dust, shock and freeze

The PENTAX WG-90 is designed for serious outdoor photography, featuring dependable protective features: waterproof down to a depth of 14 meters, for up to two hours of continuous operation; dustproof against dirt and stains; shockproof against a fall from a height of 1.6 meters; crushproof against weights up to 100kgf (kilogram-force), and freeze-proof against temperatures as low as -10°C.* Thanks to this heavy-duty construction, the WG-90 performs superbly and dependably even in harsh, demanding outdoor conditions.

Five-times optical zoom lens to capture a wide range of
high-resolution images, from wide-angle to telephoto

 

Outdoor-friendly LCD monitor

The WG-90’s 2.7-inch LCD monitor, with 16:9 proportions and approximately 230,000 dots, is treated with the advanced AR (Anti-Reflection) coating to minimize annoying glare and reflections. Its Outdoor View Setting mode lets you optimize the monitor’s brightness level for ambient lighting conditions — whether it’s outdoor shooting under the harsh sunshine or nighttime photography — to improve the visibility of an on-screen image.

A variety of shooting modes to accommodate all types of scenes and subjects

A choice of 25 scene modes

The WG-90 allows you to choose the desired scene mode from 25 options, including Auto Picture, which automatically selects the most appropriate shooting mode for a given scene or subject to preserve it in a beautiful image; Landscape, which vividly expresses green shades of trees and blue shades of the sky; and Underwater and Underwater Movie, which reproduce natural colours of the underwater world by optimizing white balance to reduce the bluish colour cast.

 

List of scene modes

Auto Picture / Program / HDR / Handheld Night Snap / Movie / High-Speed Movie / Digital Microscope / Landscape / Flower / Portrait / Underwater/ Underwater Movie / Interval Shot / Interval Movie / Surf & Snow / Kids / Pet / Sport / Night Scene / Night Scene Portrait / Fireworks / Food / Digital SR / Report

Note: In addition to the scene modes above, the Green mode is also provided for an instant recall of default settings, with a push of the Green button.

Flash Off + Flash On option for two-image consecutive shooting

In the Underwater mode, this creative option comes in handy when shooting underwater creatures. With a single shutter release, the WG-90 automatically captures two images — one without flash and another with flash — to minimize the time and trouble for camera control and let you concentrate on the image composition.

 

A selection of Image Tone modes, identical to those featured in PENTAX Digital SLR models

The WG-90 provides six distinctive Image Tone modes to add the desired finishing touch to captured images, depending on the subject or your creative intentions. They include Cross Process, which emulates a unique colour scheme associated with a cross-processing film development technique;* Vibrant, which applies bright, rich, vivid colours; and Slide Film, which creates dynamic, high-contrast images resembling those produced by reversal film.

* Cross processing: a film development technique in which the film is treated with an unconventional developer to add distinctive colours to the image.

 

List of Image Tone modes

Bright / Natural / Vibrant / Slide Film / Monochrome / Cross Processing

An array of creative functions to optimize the fun of picture-taking

User-friendly tools for macro photography

Macro photography lets you capture close-up images of small subjects, such as tiny petals and insects, in great detail. The WG-90’s 1cm Macro mode lets you capture the subject from as close as one centimetre away. It features six LED Macro Lights, which are ideally positioned around the circumference of the lens barrel. In the Macro Lighting mode,* these lights allow you to adjust the illumination intensity to five different levels to ensure the ideal lighting condition, while also preventing unwanted shade areas.
The Digital Microscope mode** comes in handy when you want to swiftly switch from normal shooting to macro photography using six LED Macro Lights. The WG-90 allows you to creatively and effortlessly capture the amazing microscopic world, which is normally undetectable to the naked eye. A macro stand is included as a standard accessory to stabilize the WG-90 at the minimum focusing distance of one centimetre during extended observation and shooting.

Interval Movie for time-compressed movie clips

The Interval Movie mode automatically captures a series of images at a fixed interval, then links them together to create a single interval (time-lapse) movie clip. You can choose the desired interval setting from one, five, 10, 30 or 60 minutes.*

The WG-90 also features an Interval Shot mode to automatically record a series of still images at a desired interval, without linking them into a movie clip.

Creative, flexible processing of captured images

The WG-90’s Ink Rubbing filter allows you to casually save your catches as creative digital images. By applying this filter to a captured image, you can effortlessly create a unique image resembling an ink stamp. Since the filtering effect can be adjusted at five levels, you can even create a high-contrast, monochromatic image of your catch.

The WG-90 also provides other creative functions to process captured images in a unique, creative way. They include a selection of digital filters and original picture frames, which are designed to shift tones, add special visual effects, dramatize images, or create various types of ambience.

 

List of filters

Small Face / Ink Rubbing / Digital (B&W, Sepia, Toy Camera, Retro, Color, Extract Color, Color Emphasis, High Contrast, Starburst, Soft, Fish-eye, Brightness, Miniature) / HDR

Full HD Movie recording

The WG-90 provides a choice of three movie recording modes: Full HD Movie (at 16:9 proportions, at a frame rate of 30 frames per second); High-Speed Movie for recording slow-motion movies; and Underwater Movie designed exclusively for underwater recording. In the Movie and Underwater Movie modes, you can take advantage of the Movie SR (Shake Reduction) mode to minimize camera shake and subject shake. You can even pick out a single frame from a captured movie clip and save it as a still image, or divide a movie clip into segments. The camera also provides an HDMI terminal (type D) for easy connection to and playback on a TV monitor or other audio-visual devices.
