Tough
Shock resistance
Enhanced shock resistance tough
enough to pass a 2.0 m drop test
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
IPX8 equivalent water resistance
enables two hours of use at 5 m depth
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
Toughness for the most demanding sites
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
Sodium hypochlorite and ethanol disinfection OK
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
rechargeable battery
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.
Shooting capacity was measured using CIPA-standard parameters. This is only an estimate and performance may vary depending on usage conditions.
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.
Shooting capacity was measured using CIPA-standard parameters. This is only an estimate and performance may vary depending on usage conditions.
Filter use possible
You can also attach commercially available 37 mm diameter filters, which are effective for preventing lens scratching and condensation.
Wide and long neck strap
With the wide, durable neck strap, you can suspend the camera diagonally, and it can also be suspended vertically from the neck to allow for easy storage in a breast pocket.
Operation controls easy to use even wearing gloves
Featuring relatively large buttons, the operation controls are arranged in a simple design that enables easy operation even with gloves on.

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
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.
GPS Accuracy: 2D RMS approx. 5m
During clear skies (fine weather with no obstructions, and an angle of elevation greater than 30 degrees)
Digital compass direction accuracy: ±6 degrees *Measurement error calculated from Magnetic north.
Bar code reader function useful for camera memo and password input
The reading of one and two dimensional bar codes is supported. The saving of bar codes as camera memos can be useful for freight management in logistics, prevention of patient data mix-ups in medical facilities, etc.
Laser Barcode Reader Unit BR-1
The camera is able to read 1-dimensional barcodes when Barcode Unit BR-1 is attached. As the Barcode Unit BR-1 emits laser light in order to read the barcode, the recognition speed of the main camera lens section is very fast, and barcodes can be read even in dark places. Even with the BR-1 attached, the camera supports IP64 dirt resistance and waterproofing, and can withstand the impact from a 1.5m fall.
