Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm T500 is significantly lighter (544g ) than the Fujifilm S1 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the S1, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the T500.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Fujifilm S1's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm T500's 2.7 screen.
Moreover, 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. On the other hand, Fujifilm T500 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to S1.
