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 Sony A6500 and Leica TL2 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony A6500 has external dimensions of 120 x 67 x 53 mm (4.72 x 2.64 x 2.09″) and weighs 453 g (1.00 lb / 15.98 oz) (including batteries). Leica TL2 has external dimensions of 134 x 69 x 33 mm (5.28 x 2.72 x 1.3″) and weighs 399 g (0.88 lb / 14.07 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Sony A6500 and the Leica TL2. Sony A6500 is 14mm narrower and 2mm shorter than Leica TL2 but it is also 20mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Sony A6500 and Leica TL2.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Sony A6500 and Leica TL2.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Leica TL2 is 54g lighter than the Sony A6500 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Sony A6500 and Leica TL2 have the same APS-C sized sensor, their lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will be similar in size and weight.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the A6500 has a big advantage over the which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Leica TL2's 3.70" LCD screen is slightly larger than Sony A6500's 3 screen.
On the other hand, Sony A6500 LCD screen has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Leica TL2 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to A6500.
