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 Kodak S-1 and Olympus E-PL5 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Kodak S-1 has external dimensions of 116 x 68 x 36 mm (4.55 x 2.69 x 1.4″) and weighs 290 g (0.64 lb / 10.23 oz) (including batteries). Olympus E-PL5 has external dimensions of 111 x 64 x 38 mm (4.37 x 2.52 x 1.5″) and weighs 325 g (0.72 lb / 11.46 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Kodak S-1 and the Olympus E-PL5. Olympus E-PL5 is 5mm narrower and 4mm shorter than Kodak S-1 but it is also 2mm thicker.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Kodak S-1 and Olympus E-PL5.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Kodak S-1 is 35g lighter than the Olympus E-PL5 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Kodak S-1 and Olympus E-PL5 have the same Micro Four Thirds lens mount and Four Thirds sized sensors, lenses will not be a differentiator on total size of the system.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Kodak Pixpro S-1 nor Olympus PEN E-PL5 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
Kodak S-1 and Olympus E-PL5's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Both cameras feature
Tilting screens where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels.
