Olympus STYLUS 1 Review

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. The constant f/2.8 aperture lens and 12-Megapixel BSI CMOS imaging sensor provide incredibly high image quality in all lighting conditions. Versatility is also covered with the lens with a 35mm equivalent zoom range of 28mm-300mm (10.7x), that surpasses just about every other low-light lens on the market. This range would take multiple, very expensive lenses to match on a dSLR. As with most new compacts; all of the incredible, easy-to-use features are also included. A large high resolution LCD screen, fantastic EVF, Intelligent Auto, WiFi and image stabilization allow anyone to use this camera with ease.

Built to be one of the best performing compacts available in low light situations, the Stylus 1 has to contribute its success to its sensor, lens and I.S. system. The 12-Megapixel BSI CMOS imaging sensor provides the best performance possible out of a sensor this size (1/1.7-inch). Olympus's 10.7x optical zoom lens with the constant f/2.8 aperture lens captures an amazing amount of light throughout the entire 28mm-300mm equivalent focal range, which makes it easy to shoot indoors or at night; in situations that most compact cameras normally could not handle. 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... Continue Reading
