pentax_WG-1_GPS_YellowGreen_550.jpgIf you're an adventitious person who loves to hike, kayak, snowboard, etc., you'll definitely want to check out our latest review of the Pentax Optio WG-1. The most rugged digital camera Pentax has created to date, the WG-1 comes from a long line of "lifeproof" or weather resistant models that date back almost a decade. The WG-1 and WG-1 GPS boast appealing specifications for those with active lifestyles, being waterproof down to 33 feet for up to 2 hours, crushproof, dustproof, coldproof, and shockproof. The GPS labeled model adds GPS functionality for effortless geo-tagging.

We really put the WG-1 through the paces, testing many of its lifeproof specs to the extreme. To see how well the WG-1 stood up to our tests, be sure to read Steve's Conclusion. You can also see a few short video clips of our underwater tests on our YouTube channel.
