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 M6 MII and Canon R7 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon M6 MII has external dimensions of 120 x 70 x 49 mm (4.72 x 2.76 x 1.93″) and weighs 408 g (0.90 lb / 14.39 oz) (including batteries). Canon R7 has external dimensions of 132 x 90 x 92 mm (5.2 x 3.54 x 3.62″) and weighs 612 g (1.35 lb / 21.59 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon M6 MII and the Canon R7. Canon M6 MII is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 12mm narrower, 20mm shorter and 43mm thinner than Canon R7.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon M6 MII and Canon R7.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon M6 MII and Canon R7.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon M6 MII is significantly lighter (204g ) than the Canon R7 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 both Canon M6 MII and Canon R7 have the same APS-C sized sensor, their lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will be similar in size and weight.

Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the R7, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the M6 II.
