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 Panasonic FZ300 and Fujifilm HS35EXR side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic FZ300 has external dimensions of 132 x 92 x 117 mm (5.2 x 3.62 x 4.61″) and weighs 691 g (including batteries). Fujifilm HS35EXR has external dimensions of 131 x 97 x 126 mm (5.16 x 3.82 x 4.96″) and weighs 687 g (1.51 lb / 24.23 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic FZ300 and the Fujifilm HS35EXR. Panasonic FZ300 is 5mm shorter and 9mm thinner than Fujifilm HS35EXR but it is also 1mm wider.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic FZ300 and Fujifilm HS35EXR.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic FZ300 and Fujifilm HS35EXR.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm HS35EXR is 4g lighter than the Panasonic FZ300 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the FZ300 has a big advantage over the HS35EXR which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic FZ300 and Fujifilm HS35EXR's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Fujifilm HS35EXR features a
Tilting-only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Panasonic FZ300 sports a
Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful, especially for taking selfies and video.
