Pentax WG-1 (and its close sibling non-GPS) will mark the 12 th generation of the company designed as part of its catch-all with the type of camera externally and meets the highest levels of Japanese JIS C 0920 and European Commission IEC 529 specifications worthy of dusting Class 6 and 8 votes resistance classification (also known as IP68). This means to provide complete protection against dust and allows immersion in water about three feet below the manufacturer's defined. In the case of Pentax GT1, it should be possible to use underwater to a depth of 33 feet for up to two hours, surpassing the previous W90 model for another 13 meters. For the GT-1 to withstand drops from five feet to 5 cm thick plywood, a full foot higher than the W90, who earn a MIL 810F Method 516.5-evaluation. Moreover, it is now said to withstand a deformable weight of 220 pounds to crush. Lovers of winter sports will appreciate the ability to work at temperatures up to 14 degrees Fahrenheit (-10 degrees Celsius), identical to that of the predecessor function.
Delivery in this robust, the Pentax GT1 is based on a "RGB image sensor 1/2.3 CCD with a resolution of 14 effective megapixels, pictures can uninterpolated as large as 4288 x 3216 pixels with an aspect ratio of 4:3. 4:09 p.m. ET as of 1:01 scale options are also available. The Optio WG-1 imager sits behind a brand Pentax 5x optical zoom, ranging from wide-angle worth 28 mm to 140 mm telephoto s extends moderately varied. maximum aperture of F3.5 to F5.5 across the zoom range, and as part of the shock and zoom mechanism is internal sealing -. which means that does not project to front of the camera lens zoom internally added advantage that the camera is ready to slip back into your pocket or purse when the camera turns off.
To assist in the size and cost by Pentax WG-1, unfortunately, does not offer a true optical viewfinder or electronic, with images and movies instead framed and reviewed on a 2.7 "LCD screen with 230,000 pixels resolution, and the same size. W90-points that count displays, representing an approximately 320 x 240 pixels, each pixel of distinct points of red, green and blue LCD screen offers wide viewing angle and contains an anti-reflection coating -. two features that should help you see more easily in difficult conditions. There is no real mechanical image stabilization found in the Pentax Optio WG1, probably offered because of the potential vulnerability of systems with dependence on mechanical moving parts. Instead, Pentax decided what she calls "Pixel Track" Shake Reduction system, which essentially uses the software for analysis and deconvolution algorithms to try to correct the image is blurred by camera movement. This is what Pentax describes as "Digital SR" coupled, increases the ISO sensitivity (and noise), giving a faster shutter speed.
Pentax WG-1 uses a 9-point autofocus, however, and includes an improved ability to detect faces. Like the W90, the GT1 find facial recognition up to 32 faces in one shot in 0.03 seconds, and includes Smile Capture and Blink Detection function to ensure that the portraits at their best. Face Detection also detects, dogs and cats, and can be programmed to identify and prioritize specific faces up to three animals, although the same functionality does not seem to be available for humans. The focus and exposure are linked to facial recognition capabilities. A new face recognition feature is its portrait intelligent help to flash an LED lamp on the front of the camera to let you know when your face is framed properly. Focusing is possible that an inch Super Macro mode that locks the zoom too close to the center of the zoom range. Standard macro mode focuses as much as possible to four inches (10 centimeters) of the zoom range. Like the W90, the GT-1 contains a number of LEDs around the lens to provide illumination for shooting in macro mode, and the photographer, the distribution of light and shadow play their final exhibition premiere. With a total of five LED lamps, the GT-1, two more than the W90, and must be clear, the lighting more uniform macro to offer. Of course, for pictures that are beyond the limited scope of the lighting macro, there is a conventional flash, and within a specified range of up to 13 feet wide, or up to 8.2 meters in telephoto.
Exposure modes are available in Pentax WG-1 green (fully automatic), Night Program, Auto Picture, Night Scene, Underwater, Landscape, Flower, Portrait, Surf & Snow, children, pets, sports, traffic Fireworks, Candle, Scene Portrait, Text, and food. Auto Picture mode automatically selects from a subset of scene modes as required, with sixteen options - double the W90. These include Landscape, Portrait, Night Scene, Night Portrait, Standard, flowers, sports, candlelight, sky blue, sunset, text, group photos, pet portrait x Blue Sky, Sunset x Portrait, Backlight Portrait x. There are six modes to operate at a reduced resolution, the digital microscope include (two megapixels), digital (Wide five megapixels) Digital SR (ISO 3200 or ISO 6400 four to five megapixels megapixels), Digital Panorama (two megapixels per image) , Frame Composite (two or three megapixels) and the relation (1.2 megapixels). Finally, there are two videos and an audio mode: Film, Shrink, and voice recording. The videos are compressed AVI Motion JPEG with monaural sound and PCM collected offered 720p (1280 x 720 pixels), VGA (640 x 480 pixels) or QVGA (320 x 240 pixels). Movie mode frame rate is 15 or 30 frames per second in one of these resolutions.
The GT1 Optio provides generally equivalent ISO sensitivity from a minimum of ISO 80 to control up to ISO 1600, automatically or manually. From the above, the resolution of five megapixels, which can be expanded to ISO 3200, ISO 6400 equivalent during the visit of four megapixels, either manually or automatically Digital SR. Range of shutter speeds from 1 / 1, 500 to 1 / 4 second for ordinary or up to 4 seconds in Night Scene. Exposures are determined with a TTL Multi-segment, center or spot metering, exposure compensation with 2.0 EV in 1 / 3 EV. The GT1 Pentax has six white balance modes including Auto, Daylight, Shade, Tungsten, Fluorescent, and Manual. There is also a timer with two or ten second delay.
The GT-1 draws its power from a Pentax D-LI92 lithium-ion battery, instead of using the D-LI88 of W90. Images and movies are stored on SD flash cards, SDHC or SDXC or 97MB of internal memory - almost four times more than the W90. Connectivity options include USB 2.0 High Speed, and two HDMI high definition and standard definition NTSC / PAL composite video output. The battery is included with a charger, USB cable and standard high-definition video cables in the bundle of products, while the HDMI cable is optional. The GT-1 also provides support for Eye-Fi Wireless SD, which can be configured via the menu system of the camera and is compatible with Pentax WP Optional Waterproof IR.
The Pentax Optio WG-1 will be available from April 2011, at a price of about $ 350 total, about $ 20 more than the previous model W90 and $ 50 less than the version equipped with GPS, GPS GT-1.
