LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus 1's 3" LCD screen is slightly larger than Casio EX-FC100's 2.7" screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Olympus 1 LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over the head levels. On the other hand, Casio EX-FC100 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to 1.
