Sometimes while on sightseeing or on a tour, you can only observe things from a distance. Which is why the zoom capability on this camera comes in handy in that situation.

After investing in an electronic kit of this nature, water resistance will come to mind each time you take it outdoors. Good news is that this model from Ricoh can handle splashes of water with no issues.

Sometimes carrying cables about just so you can move your photos across the devices can be a pain. Good thing this particular model comes with Wi-Fi.

Style

When you want to stand out from the crowd, the THETA SC uses bright colours and funky designs to turn heads. This is not your average camera.

The THETA SC comes in an unconventional package that stands out from the typical greys and blacks that are common with such devices.
