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 Fujifilm S1 and Olympus SP-100 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm S1 has external dimensions of 133 x 91 x 110 mm (5.24 x 3.58 x 4.33″) and weighs 680 g (1.50 lb / 23.99 oz) (including batteries). Olympus SP-100 has external dimensions of 122 x 91 x 133 mm (4.8 x 3.6 x 5.25″) and weighs 594 g (1.31 lb / 20.95 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm S1 and the Olympus SP-100.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Fujifilm S1 and Olympus SP-100.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm S1 and Olympus SP-100.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus SP-100 is 86g lighter than the Fujifilm S1 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the S1 has a big advantage over the SP-100 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Fujifilm S1 and Olympus SP-100's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Fujifilm S1 sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. Olympus SP-100's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to S1.
