Crushproof
Heavy-duty and dependable in harsh, demanding conditions, the crushproof construction withstands weights up to 100 kilograms, preventing from damage at the bottom of a backpack, or when accidentally wedged between a body and a solid object.
Coldproof
Coldproof to sub-freezing temperatures of -10 degrees Celsius making the WG-4 ideal for use in cold, snowy, wet conditions from skiing to snowmobiling, snowshoeing to sledding, or just building a snowman in the front yard.

Shutter Priority Shooting Mode
New to the WG-4, the Shutter Priority shooting mode provides more creative freedom by allowing the shutter speed to be selected manually, while other exposure parameters are automatically adjusted to capture the perfect image.
