I have the WG-3 and WG-5. Haven’t used either much underwater, but then I haven’t been underwater that much.
If you would like to buy the WG-3 for your friend to evaluate (whatever is a fair price) let me know. The newer models look & act pretty much the same, though with a deeper underwater rating. But the WG-3 would give the friend a hands-on sense of the Pentax/Ricoh offering. stan > On Dec 4, 2017, at 1:11 PM, Paul Sorenson <pentax1...@gmail.com> wrote: > > The WG series pretty much fits the bill.
