| Olympus STYLUS 1 Review Olympus has given new meaning and functionality to the compact digicam. With the introduction of the Stylus 1 camera, they have provided the control of a dSLR in a compact body that you will have no problems taking with you any time.

Helping to support this large zoom lens is a mechanical lens-shift image stabilization system. This helps not only to stabilize the camera while shooting handheld telephoto shots, but it offers several stops worth of correction, allowing you to...
