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 TS6 and Canon G5 X side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic TS6 has external dimensions of 110 x 67 x 29 mm (4.33 x 2.64 x 1.14″) and weighs 214 g (0.47 lb / 7.55 oz) (including batteries). Canon G5 X has external dimensions of 112 x 76 x 44 mm (4.41 x 2.99 x 1.73″) and weighs 353 g (0.78 lb / 12.45 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic TS6 and the Canon G5 X. Panasonic TS6 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 2mm narrower, 9mm shorter and 15mm thinner than Canon G5 X.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic TS6 and Canon G5 X.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic TS6 and Canon G5 X.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic TS6 is significantly lighter (139g ) than the Canon G5 X which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TS6, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the G5 X.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic TS6 and Canon G5 X's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Canon G5 X 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. Panasonic TS6's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to G5 X.
