The WG-4 GPS was announced 24 months earlier than the Quattro making the cameras a generation away from one another. Both of the cameras offer different body type with the Ricoh WG-4 GPS being a Compact camera and the Sigma Quattro being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before we go through a detailed comparison, below is a quick overview of how the WG-4 GPS scores against the Quattro with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Ricoh WG-4 GPS & Sigma sd Quattro. The whole galleries are provided at Ricoh WG-4 GPS Gallery & Sigma Quattro Gallery.

In case you're looking to travel with your camera often, you're going to have to factor in its weight and proportions.

Take into consideration, the weight of an ILC will change depending on the lens you select at that time. Below is the front view dimensions comparison of the WG-4 GPS versus the Quattro.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the WG-4 GPS and Quattro is 90 and 63 respectively.

Typically, it's difficult to imagine the difference between sensor dimensions purely by reading through technical specs. The pic here should offer you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the WG-4 GPS and Quattro.

As you can tell, both the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The WG-4 GPS using its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF harder and the Sigma Quattro will give you extra detail with its extra 13MP. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop photos far more aggressively. The more aged WG-4 GPS is going to be behind with regard to sensor technology.
