I am looking to upgrade from my now old Stylus 1 and was wondering if anyone has found a better all in one system that the Stylus 1? I would like a bigger zoom range like 400-600 in about the same compact size than the stylus. Also looking for a better dynamic range SOOC. I shoot jpegs and always have to do a batch adjustment with auto tone correction to get the best result. I have tried various in camera settings for gradation but it seems not as efficient as the OV3 auto tone correction. I shoot a mix of animal, scenery and city. Thanks for your recommendations.

Nothing in my opinion compares in terms of handling and pocketable size. In the past I've had a RX100 m4, the image quality is better, zoom range is not so good and the handling is awful as the battery life. So I've sold it.

I prefer the joy of using dials and the handling of the Stylus1, a successor could be a big success in my opinion.

+1. I had the same experience with the RX100 IV. Sure it's smaller but menus are awful compared to Olympus. My Stylus 1copy has been very reliable except that the capacitor for date & time loses memory when the battery is removed. My wife says the same about me. 🙃
