Ricoh is the latest company to get in on the 4K action camera market with their new WG-M2. The WG-M2 packs a ton of features into a package costing just US$300, including UHD 4K up to 30fps, 1080p up to 60fps, and 720p up to 120fps. One of the interesting features of the WG-M2 is its incredibly wide lens with an angle of view of 204° in the widest mode, and 151° in the Narrow mode. What might be the nicest feature of the camera is its durability, and the fact that you don’t need an external housing to take it underwater. It’s waterproof down to 20 metres, shockproof up to 2 metres, and freeze proof to a chilly -10°C, and with the built-in 1.5″ LCD on top, you’ll be able to monitor the whole time.

Since the camera has built-in WiFi, it’s able to be operated remotely with the Ricoh ImageSync app, very similar to the way current GoPro models can be operated from afar. Another handy feature is the ability to rotate the image 90° depending on the orientation and how you’ve mounted it – allowing you to get a level horizon even if the camera is on its side or upside down.
