While there is nothing technically ‘wrong’ with that, this latest generation model is hardly pushing hard at the boundaries of the technology indeed, at initial glance it appears Ricoh is simply giving its users a shrug and asking ‘will this do?’ of this model that feels like it is recycling yesterday’s spec. The back plate LCD screen used for composition and review in the absence of an eye level viewfinder also boasts the same size as that on the WG-60 at 2.7-inches and the same screen resolution at a so-so 230K pixels. It makes us immediately suspect there’s not much that is all that different on the inside, either.Ī glance at headline features of the Ricoh WG70 and there’s much here too we’ve seen before… and, yes, adorning the outwardly identical WG-60 returning here is a maximum 16-megapixel resolution from a back-illuminated CMOS sensor, whereas last summer’s WG-6 gave us 20MP (perhaps there is a WG-7 in the works?). We guess that didn’t quite work, however, as with the introduction of the WG-70, which we’re looking at here, Ricoh is back to its old tricks of ‘letting it all hang out’ externally with its very familiar sporty fascia. The WG-6 was less about go-faster stripes and wacky designs and was altogether more ‘reined in’ than previous iterations. We live in unprecedented times so is the reassuringly rugged and recently introduced Ricoh WG70 the destruction-proofed point-and-shoot compact for our challenging age? Last summer we reviewed Ricoh’s similarly toughened WG-6 compact, which arrived in the wake of the older WG-60 (which this more closely resembles), and by contrast featured what was trumpeted as an improved and renewed design and handling.

The WG70 features a Digital Microscope mode that allows the subject to be greatly enlarged, plus six built-in Macro Lights to assist close-up shooting. It's also shockproof against a fall from a height of 1.6 meters and freeze-proof against temperatures as low as -10☌.


The Ricoh WG-70 is a new tough compact camera that's perfect for underwater photography down to 14 metres for up to two hours.
