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 M50 and Nikon Z6 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon M50 has external dimensions of 116 x 88 x 59 mm (4.57 x 3.46 x 2.32″) and weighs 390 g (0.86 lb / 13.76 oz) (including batteries). Nikon Z6 has external dimensions of 134 x 101 x 68 mm (5.28 x 3.98 x 2.68″) and weighs 675 g (1.49 lb / 23.81 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon M50 and the Nikon Z6. Canon M50 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 18mm narrower, 13mm shorter and 9mm thinner than Nikon Z6.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon M50 and Nikon Z6.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon M50 and Nikon Z6.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon M50 is significantly lighter (285g ) than the Nikon Z6 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
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 Nikon Z6 has a Full frame sensor and Canon M50 has a smaller APS-C sensor, Canon M50's lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will generally be lighter and smaller than the Nikon Z6 lenses.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the Z6, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the M50.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon Z6's 3.20" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon M50's 3 screen.
