Pentax Optio WG-2 prices and specs
The Optio WG-2 was produced on Feb 7, 2012 and is available in USA for 154.59
The Optio WG-2 is a compact camera. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Pentax Optio WG-2 has different automatic modes but you won't get pictures of the same high quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Optio WG-2 can make photos at 16 megapixels max resolution. But for better photo quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the Optio WG-2 will produce photos with not so high quality as cameras with larger sensors but instead it is more portable. And if you want to make photos of the professional quality check Nikon D750.
The Pentax Optio WG-2 has max shutter speed of 1/4000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for making action photos of a very good quality. The Pentax Optio WG-2 shoots high quality videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is built into the Optio WG-2 and the camera owner can't change it. The lens provides good 5x optical zoom.
The Optio WG-2 battery life will be enough to make approximately 260 photos.
