Extreme Adventure Camera

1 Sep

The new Pentax WP-90 camera is pretty amazing. This little 12.1 megapixel camera is designed to be used under extreme conditions (snow, rain, mud, etc.) and, judging by its appearance and the reviews I’ve read (it was just named Gear of the Year by Outside Mag), it seems like it can handle whatever you might throw at it. I’m a sucker for the fact it has a nylon strap with attached carabiner. It’s just too bad it says “not for climbing” on it. One rated for a few hundred pounds would have been a nice touch. It’s definitely on my list of future adventure gear. Enjoy!

    Shouldn’t it be the other way around?

      I would say so. Either way, adventures are already underway. Riding ATVs in Kaua’i was pretty extreme as far as my camera was concerned. I had to spend some serious time cleaning red dirt off the entire thing.
