The Compleat Olympus Stylus 1s: A Guide to the Olympus Stylus 1s & Stylus 1 Cameras

By Steven M. Frankel

The Olympus Stylus 1s, and last year's model, the Olympus Stylus 1, are the only cameras on the market today to combine the following features:* 14 oz. weight -- including the lens* 28-300 mm f2.8 constant aperture lens* Huge, bright EVF eye-level viewfinder* Touch-sensitive 3" LCD monitor* Split-second focusing and exposure controlSome might say this combination of features approaches the ideal travel and street-shooting camera.Steve bought the Stylus 1s as a back up for a $6,000+ interchangeable lens system . A few days later, he left on a cruise that included three ports in Japan, one in Siberia and five in Alaska. He was looking for a very light, relatively inexpensive camera with a fast lens and good telephoto capabilities that he could use if anything went wrong with his more expensive camera.However, after shooting more than 300 photos the first few days in Tokyo, he found myself using the Stylus 1s nearly all of the time. It was lightweight, much more versatile and a pleasure to use. However, he was disappointed with the Olympus Stylus 1s Instruction Manual. He found himself losing valuable vacation time searching through the manual. It didn't have a detailed table of contents and it usually it didn't suggest WHICH setting should be selected under different circumstances.These issues led to Steve writing this book. You will find yourself having to refer to the manual must less often. More importantly, you will always be told WHY you should select particular settings. These suggestions are based Steve's taking more than 1,600 photos with the Stylus 1s, the best of which are included in this book. In fact, all the photos in the book, with the exception of the cover photos and the photos of the camera, were taken with the Stylus 1s."Really," Steve says, "this book is all you need to make shooting with the Stylus 1s or Stylus 1 one of the most satisfying photo experiences you have ever had!"
