Ricoh WG-M1
Currently GoPro dominates the action camera industry. However, there are
alternatives to this big name in capturing a first-hand glimpse of the
nail biting action in sports and other activities. The Ricoh WG-M1 is a
durable, affordable alternative to the GoPro cameras.
With its ultra-wide angle lens, the Ricoh allows athletes and adventurers to capture every inch of their high intensity action. Check out the video below for a sample of footage from the Ricoh WG-M1.
The Ricoh WG-M1 video camera is a HD 1080p resolution camera, and it can capture 14 megapixel still images. It is also equipped with WiFi connection capabilities, so sending images and videos from your smartphone and uploading them to social media is a snap.
You can also use the Ricoh WG-M1 to shoot underwater. It is waterproof, in its own casing, up to 32 feet. This may be the biggest difference between the Ricoh WG-M1 and other action cameras–most cameras require a separate casing to film underwater, while the Ricoh WG-M1 doesn’t.
