Notably evolved by camera designer Maitani Yoshihisa[1] from his Olympus XA design. It was very small and curvy, with an integrated lens cover. It is switched on by shifting the lens cover to one side. The Stylus was the first model in the hugely successful Olympus mju/Stylus series. https://camerapedia.fandom.com/wiki/Olympus_%C2%B5
