Olympus Stylus 1 hands-on preview
Here is a summary or excerpt from an article that has just been published on DPNow:
Olympus had a massive success with the OM-D E-M5, a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless interchangeable lens system camera, thanks in large part to its unapologetically OM film SLR-styling that dates back to the 1970s. With its new premium bridge camera, the Stylus 1, Olympus hopes that OM magic will work again, but as with the E-M5 the the Stylus 1 is more than a looker. Although not as outrageously long range by some contemporary bridge camera standards, the 10.7x (28-300 equivalent) zoom lens boasts a very bright f/2.8 maximum aperture throughout the zoom range. The lens also collapses down so efficiently when not in use that the Stylus 1 is almost like a compact camera rather than a bridge camera in terms of pocketability, being just 52mm from front to back.
