The 5x optical zoom lens provides an angle of view of 5mm to 25mm, which is equivalent to a full-frame view of approximately 28mm to 140mm. A minimum focusing distance of 1cm allows for ultra-close macro photography.
Surrounding the lens barrel is a six-LED ring light, so you can capture clearer, sharper images in low-light conditions. The strength of the light emitted can be adjusted.

The WG-8's GPS module automatically records position and travel log data onto captured images. Signals can be received from GLONASS and U.S. GPS satellites. GPS data, directional data and UTC can be imprinted on the lower right corner of an image.
Use the WG-8 as a web camera by switching to UVC mode, connecting it to a computer via USB cable, and then streaming Full HD video at 30fps.
A high-resolution 3" 1.04m-dot LCD monitor allows for wide-angle viewing. An antireflection coating on the monitor minimizes glare and allows easier viewing even in harsh sunlight. Additionally, the Outdoor View setting allows you to adjust the monitor's brightness for optimized visibility.
