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 SL300 and Olympus 1 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm SL300 has external dimensions of 122 x 93 x 100 mm (4.8 x 3.66 x 3.94″) and weighs 510 g (1.12 lb / 17.99 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus 1 is significantly lighter (108g ) than the Fujifilm SL300 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm FinePix SL300 nor Olympus Stylus 1 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
Fujifilm SL300 and Olympus 1's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Olympus 1 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 Fujifilm SL300 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to 1.
