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 Nikon D4 and Nikon AW110 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon D4 has external dimensions of 160 x 157 x 91 mm (6.3 x 6.18 x 3.58″) and weighs 1340 g (2.95 lb / 47.27 oz) (including batteries). Nikon AW110 has external dimensions of 110 x 65 x 25 mm (4.33 x 2.56 x 0.98″) and weighs 193 g (0.43 lb / 6.81 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon D4 and the Nikon AW110. Nikon AW110 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 50mm narrower, 92mm shorter and 66mm thinner than Nikon D4. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon AW110 has a built-in lens but Nikon D4 doesn't. Once you put a lens on D4, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon D4 and Nikon AW110.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon D4 and Nikon AW110.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon AW110 is significantly lighter (1147g ) than the Nikon D4 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on D4, the total kit will weigh much higher.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon D4's 3.20" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon AW110's 3" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
