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 Olympus TG-1 iHS and Fujifilm X30 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus TG-1 iHS has external dimensions of 112 x 67 x 30 mm (4.41 x 2.64 x 1.18″) and weighs 230 g (0.51 lb / 8.11 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm X30 has external dimensions of 119 x 72 x 60 mm (4.69 x 2.83 x 2.36″) and weighs 423 g (0.93 lb / 14.92 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus TG-1 iHS and the Fujifilm X30. Olympus TG-1 iHS is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 7mm narrower, 5mm shorter and 30mm thinner than Fujifilm X30.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus TG-1 iHS and Fujifilm X30.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus TG-1 iHS and Fujifilm X30.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus TG-1 iHS is significantly lighter (193g ) than the Fujifilm X30 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the TG-1 iHS has a big advantage over the X30 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus TG-1 iHS and Fujifilm X30's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Fujifilm X30 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Olympus TG-1 iHS has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to X30.
