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 XQ1 and Nikon S6900 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm XQ1 has external dimensions of 100 x 59 x 33 mm (3.94 x 2.32 x 1.3″) and weighs 206 g (0.45 lb / 7.27 oz) (including batteries). Nikon S6900 has external dimensions of 99 x 58 x 28 mm (3.9 x 2.28 x 1.1″) and weighs 181 g (0.40 lb / 6.38 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm XQ1 and the Nikon S6900. Nikon S6900 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 1mm narrower, 1mm shorter and 5mm thinner than Fujifilm XQ1.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Fujifilm XQ1 and Nikon S6900.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm XQ1 and Nikon S6900.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S6900 is 25g lighter than the Fujifilm XQ1 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm XQ1 nor Nikon Coolpix S6900 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 XQ1 and Nikon S6900's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Nikon S6900 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. Fujifilm XQ1's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to S6900.
