Wide-Angle Adventure Cameras

The Ricoh WG-M2 Lets You Capture a 204-Degree Field Of View

— February 24, 2016 — Lifestyle
When it comes to adventure cameras, what separates the excellent from the merely very good is the ability to capture images that don't simply depict the adventure sport or activity in question, but capture a handsome amount of the surrounding environment in order to lend maximum context to the photo.

The Ricoh WG-M2 is certainly an example of this. This adventure camera is capable of capturing beautiful 4K video across an unheard-of 204-degree field of view, even though you have the option to narrow this ultra-wide field of view. The camera is also extremely sturdy and is capable of withstanding knocks, scrapes, water exposure and exposure to severely cold temperatures

As a result, this adventure camera will appeal to true outdoor adventurers who want to be able to share their adventures with friends and others in high fidelity.



Trend Themes
1. Wide-angle Adventure Cameras - Opportunity to develop more adventure cameras with wide-angle lenses capable of capturing more of the surrounding environment, such as rugged and waterproof compact designs.
2. 4K Video Capture - Opportunity to develop more adventure cameras with Ultra HD 4K video capabilities for high definition recordings of outdoor adventures.
3. Extreme Durability - Opportunity to improve and design more adventure cameras with shockproof, waterproof and freeze-proof features for use in outdoor environments with varied weather conditions.
Industry Implications
1. Photography Equipment - Adventure cameras provide opportunities for companies who create and sell photography equipment to tap into the growing market for specialized cameras and accessories of outdoor adventurers.
2. Outdoor Gear/biking/surfing - Manufacturers of outdoor gear, biking and surfing equipment and accessories can consider developing or incorporating adventure cameras to offer a more immersive and shareable experience for their customers during adventures.
3. Travel and Tourism - Tourism and travel companies can capitalize on the trend of adventure cameras by offering unique adventure experiences to customers and providing rental or loaner services of adventure cameras for their customers to capture their experiences in higher fidelity.
