Sharp, clear images

The WG-1000 features a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor with approximately 16.35 effective megapixels and outstanding light reception efficiency to deliver sharp, clear, high-resolution images.

4x optical zoom lens

Within its compact, lightweight body, it features a four-times optical zoom lens with a focal-length coverage from 4.9 mm to 19.6mm (equivalent to approx. 27mm to 108mm in the 35mm format) to accommodate a wide range of applications. When coupled with its Digital Zoom function, you can extend the zoom range by approximately 24 times.

A choice of seven capture modes

The WG-1000 provides a choice of seven distinctive capture modes, including: Auto Picture, which automatically detects a given scene or subject and selects the most appropriate shooting mode; Manual, which allows you to manually select the desired aperture, shutter speed and ISO sensitivity. Underwater, which reproduces true-to-life colors of the underwater world by reducing the bluish color cast; and Scene, which lets you select a desired scene mode from 18 different options.

A selection of Color modes to personalize the visual expressions

The WG-1000 provides 20 Color modes to add the desired finishing touch to your images. In addition to the conventional Black and White and Sepia modes, it also features more creative options, such as Japan Style, which enhances bluish hues; Italian Style, which enhances greenish hues; French Style, which enhances reddish hues; Negative, which creates a finishing touch resembling that of negative film before a positive is made; and Sketch, which adds a visual effect resembling that of a drawing. This function lets you add the desired finishing touch to your image.

Full HD Movie recording

The WG-1000 features a choice of movie recording modes, including: Full HD Movie (at a frame rate of 30 frames per second) and High Speed Movie for recording slow-motion movies (with 640 X 480 pixels, at 120 frames per second).
