What we like about Olympus Stylus 1S

  • Constant f/2.8 aperture across the entire 28-300mm zoom range
  • Compact and lightweight build, ideal for travel and street photography
  • High-quality electronic viewfinder (EVF) and tilting touchscreen LCD
  • Excellent physical controls, including a hybrid control ring and twin dials
  • Fast and accurate autofocus performance for its class
  • Built-in Wi-Fi for remote control and quick photo sharing
  • Includes a built-in ND filter for bright shooting conditions

What we don't like about Olympus Stylus 1S

  • Small 1/1.7-inch sensor limits image quality compared to larger-sensor cameras
  • Noticeable noise and graininess at high ISO settings (above ISO 800-1600)
  • Lack of weather sealing makes it vulnerable in adverse conditions
  • Some image softness reported, especially at the telephoto end of the zoom
  • Limited depth-of-field control due to the smaller sensor size
  • Occasional lag or freezing when writing images to the memory card
  • Difficult to repair due to lack of spare parts from the manufacturer

Verdict

The Olympus Stylus 1S is a premium bridge-style compact camera featuring a 12-megapixel 1/1.7-inch BSI CMOS sensor and a versatile i.Zuiko Digital 10.7x optical zoom lens with a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture across its 28-300mm equivalent range. Its main characteristics include a 1.44-million-dot electronic viewfinder, a 3-inch tilting touchscreen LCD, built-in Wi-Fi, and a 7 fps burst rate, all powered by the TruePic VI image processor. Key pros are its bright, fast lens that excels in low light, its pocketable DSLR-inspired magnesium alloy body, and an integrated 3-stop ND filter. However, its small sensor size limits high-ISO performance and depth-of-field control, it lacks 4K video support, and it has a relatively low maximum shutter speed of 1/2000 second.
