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 R6 II and Leica Q-P side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon R6 II has external dimensions of 138 x 98 x 88 mm (5.43 x 3.84 x 3.48″) and weighs 680 g (1.50 lb / 23.99 oz) (including batteries). Leica Q-P has external dimensions of 130 x 80 x 93 mm (5.12 x 3.15 x 3.66″) and weighs 640 g (1.41 lb / 22.58 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon R6 II and the Leica Q-P. Leica Q-P is 8mm narrower and 18mm shorter than Canon R6 II but it is also 5mm thicker. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Leica Q-P has a built-in lens but Canon R6 II doesn't. Once you put a lens on R6 II, its thickness will increase significantly.

Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon R6 II and Leica Q-P.

Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon R6 II and Leica Q-P.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Leica Q-P is 40g lighter than the Canon R6 II but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
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 R6 II, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the R6 II has a big advantage over the Q-P which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon R6 II and Leica Q-P's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Canon R6 II 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. Leica Q-P's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to R6 II.
