Product details

The Pentax WG-8 is your companion for breathtaking underwater shots and unforgettable adventures. Thanks to its excellent water resistance and the ability to capture up to two hours of continuous underwater images, it will keep up with you wherever your journey takes you.

With its back-illuminated CMOS image sensor and a powerful image processing module, the WG-8 captures detailed, high-resolution images with up to 20 megapixels, even in difficult lighting conditions. Super Resolution technology ensures razor-sharp images, while the handheld night recording mode minimises camera shake and ensures clear images at night.

Dive to depths of up to 20 metres and capture your adventures without sacrificing image quality. The WG-8 is not only waterproof, but also shockproof up to a drop height of 2.1 metres and can withstand loads of up to 100kgf to survive your adventures unscathed.

Choose from 18 scene modes and 12 digital filters to unleash your creativity and add a personal touch to every image. The 3.0-inch LCD monitor with wide viewing angle allows for comfortable image composition and viewing, whether you're underwater or on land. The Pentax WG-8 is an indispensable tool for adventurers who want to capture their experiences in excellent quality. Explore the world with the WG-8 and capture every moment, no matter how challenging the conditions.
