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-3 and Sony HX90V side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus TG-3 has external dimensions of 112 x 66 x 31 mm (4.41 x 2.6 x 1.22″) and weighs 247 g (0.54 lb / 8.71 oz) (including batteries). Sony HX90V has external dimensions of 102 x 58 x 36 mm (4.02 x 2.28 x 1.42″) and weighs 245 g (0.54 lb / 8.64 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus TG-3 and the Sony HX90V. Sony HX90V is 10mm narrower and 8mm shorter than Olympus TG-3 but it is also 5mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus TG-3 and Sony HX90V.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus TG-3 and Sony HX90V.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony HX90V is 2g lighter than the Olympus TG-3 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TG-3, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the HX90V.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus TG-3 and Sony HX90V's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Sony HX90V 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-3 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to HX90V.
