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 Canon 100D and Fujifilm F500 EXR side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon 100D has external dimensions of 117 x 91 x 69 mm (4.61 x 3.58 x 2.72″) and weighs 407 g (0.90 lb / 14.36 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm F500 EXR has external dimensions of 104 x 63 x 33 mm (4.09 x 2.48 x 1.3″) and weighs 215 g (0.47 lb / 7.58 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon 100D and the Fujifilm F500 EXR. Fujifilm F500 EXR is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 13mm narrower, 28mm shorter and 36mm thinner than Canon 100D. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Fujifilm F500 EXR has a built-in lens but Canon 100D doesn't. Once you put a lens on 100D, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon 100D and Fujifilm F500 EXR.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon 100D and Fujifilm F500 EXR.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm F500 EXR is significantly lighter (192g ) than the Canon 100D which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on 100D, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon EOS 100D (EOS Rebel SL1) nor Fujifilm FinePix F500 EXR provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon 100D and Fujifilm F500 EXR's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
