Description:
The Ricoh WG-M2 is a waterproof action camera featuring 4K and high-speed full HD and HD video recording. This is the first camera to offer 4K video support from either Ricoh or Pentax.

Other highlights are waterproofing to 20 meters, built-in Wi-Fi, an ultra-wide 204 or 151 degree selectable field of view, and reduced size and weight over the WG-M1. The camera weighs just 136g loaded and ready to use.
