VIDEO: Pentax Optio WG-1 Makes Shooting Close Up Pictures Easier

If you have been looking for a tough weatherproof compact camera that could shoot tiny insects and plants well, this might be it.  This Optio comes with 5 LEDS, giving the camera enough light to help shoot any object as close as 0.03 inch (1cm).

Like the predecessor,  we think this new camera suits mountain climbers, researchers or biologists.  Just look at the woven carabiner strap.

The WG-1 is also crushproof up to 220 pounds (99 kg). This means you could cram it with other stuff in your backpack without any worries at all.
