Tough Shock resistance Despite its small size and light weight, the G700SE has strengthened glass at the lens front surface and body protectors added at strategic points. This toughness enabled it to withstand 2.0 m drops in 26 positions (6 surfaces, 8 corners, and 12 edges) in testing conforming to US Department of Defense “MIL Standard 810F.” Furthermore, it also passes this test with the power on. Water resistance Water resistance is rated at JIS/IEC waterproof protection grade 8 so the G700SE can handle two hours of underwater photography at a depth of 5 m. In addition to use at wet sites, the G700SE can also be used for shooting in the rain, and it can be washed in water if it gets dirty. Dust and cold resistance Dust resistance, at JIS/IEC dustproof protection grade 6, guards against infiltration by dust and sand. The G700SE can also shoot in cold environments, with cold resistance able to handle temperatures down to -10°C. Chemical resistance The G700SE can be disinfected with ethanol or sodium hypochlorite, which has been approved as a food additive disinfectant. So it can be safely used in medical facilities and production facilities. Extended operation time for up to about 360 pictures Approximately 360 pictures* can be taken with the rechargeable battery provided. The dissipation of battery power can be reduced by specifying synchro monitor mode, which turns the picture display off when the camera is not being operated. AAA Alkaline batteries can also be used In addition to the high-capacity rechargeable battery included, the G700SE can also be powered with readily available AAA-size alkaline batteries. With these batteries, approximately 40 shots* can be taken. So you can quickly recover from the battery depletion that can occur in periods of long use. Expand Equipped with Bluetooth® and Wireless LAN Functions The camera unit comes equipped with Bluetooth® Ver.2.1 +EDR function and wireless LAN (802.11b/g) function. Images can be sent by high-speed data transfer to smartphones and other supported devices as well as to computers. The camera unit also supports WPS for simple connection and setup to wireless LAN networks. The camera can also multi-task, obtaining position information from an external GPS device via Bluetooth® while transmitting images via wireless LAN to make your workflow easier. GPS Unit with Electronic Compass GP-1 <Option> By connecting the compact GP-1 GPS unit, you can attach location information to pictures or movies taken with the camera. And thanks to the electronic compass support, you can also register direction information to recorded images. Even with the GP-1 attached, the camera supports IP64 dirt resistance and waterproofing, and can withstand the impact of a 1.2m fall. Smart 12.1 million effective pixels for more precise photo reproduction Sharply reproduce worksite conditions and even words written on a blackboard. Even after cropping, images remain crisp and vivid Built-in flash reaches up to 10m For reliable photography even in dark sites such as tunnel interiors, the G700SE has a built-in flash with a range of 10 m for wide-angle and 6.2 m for telephoto. With high-sensitivity ISO 3200, the G700SE can also shoot in situations where flash cannot be used. Firefighting mode The focal length is fixed to 2.5 m and ISO sensitivity is raised to enable shooting of clear photographs in the difficult conditions for autofocus at the scene of a fire. Sharpness processing is also done to give the still images a sharper feel. Electronic vibration correction function The G700SE utilizes the new electronic vibration correction function that takes two exposures at high speed with the differences being calculated. It is a powerful tool when shooting in low light and when shooting telephoto. Skew correction function Rectangular objects photographed at an angle are corrected so they appear to have been shot squarely. The before-correction image is also recorded. Wide and Macro 28-140 mm non-extending optical 5x zoom captures each subject as intended The G700SE uses a 28-140 mm 5x optical zoom lens. With the ability to take photographs across a wide range impossible for a standard 35 mm lens, the G700SE is convenient for shooting indoors and at other sites where it is not practical to back up. It also easily handles telephoto shooting. Wide conversion lens (DW-5) <Option> Now it is possible to shoot at an even wider 22 mm equivalent. With the slim design, you can shoot without being bothered by lens bulk even when the conversion lens is attached. Even surface texture is visible: 1 cm macro shooting With 1 cm wide-angle macro photography* you can capture small screws and scratches and even vividly reproduce material textures. In addition, the flash can be used to illuminate subjects as close as 20 cm. Useful Boasting a wide viewing angle, the 3.0-inch 920,000-dot picture display is easy-to-see and easy-to-use even outdoors The G700SE has a large 3.0-inch 920,000-dot high-definition picture display. The wide angle and high contrast give high visibility even outdoors. Electronic level enables level photography For level shooting, an electronic level is provided as a standard feature. It enables you to hold the camera in an accurate level position when shooting subjects such as buildings and interiors. Date display when camera is turned on Date information is indispensible when creating photographic records. By displaying the date from the time the camera is turned on until the shutter release button is pressed, this function helps prevent time data errors caused by incorrect date/time settings. Secure SD WORM (write once read many) memory card supported The G700SE supports the SanDisk Corporation SD WORM (write once read many) card. Since deletes, changes, and card initialization cannot be done, these cards can be used in place of film for original documents when recording police, fire department, and defense-related scenes where data reliability might be questioned. When stored under suitable conditions, the data can be preserved for about 100 years. Camera lock functions for a variety of operation controls By defining a password, you can lock the camera. In addition to locking the camera as a whole or internal memory playback, you can also limit use to SD WORM cards or just restrict setting changes. The locks and restrictions can be removed through password entry with a software keyboard or bar code. Camera memo functions make image management much easier When an image is not enough, up to 20 text or voice information fields can be recorded as memos together with the photograph. Selection from multiple memos (up to 99 files) is possible, and memos can also be recorded in internal memory.
