Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, we are going to illustrate the Olympus 1s and Kodak M580 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus 1s has external dimensions of 116 x 87 x 57 mm (4.57 x 3.43 x 2.24″) and weighs 402 g (0.89 lb / 14.18 oz) (including batteries). Kodak M580 has external dimensions of 101 x 59 x 56 mm (3.98 x 2.32 x 2.2″) and weighs 150 g (0.33 lb / 5.29 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus 1s and the Kodak M580. Kodak M580 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 15mm narrower, 28mm shorter and 1mm thinner than Olympus 1s.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus 1s and Kodak M580.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus 1s and Kodak M580.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Kodak M580 is significantly lighter (252g ) than the Olympus 1s which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Olympus Stylus 1s nor Kodak EasyShare M580 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus 1s and Kodak M580's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Olympus 1s features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Kodak M580 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to 1s.
