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 RP and Leica TL2 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon RP has external dimensions of 133 x 85 x 70 mm (5.24 x 3.35 x 2.76″) and weighs 485 g (1.07 lb / 17.11 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 Canon RP and the Leica TL2. Leica TL2 is 16mm shorter and 37mm thinner than Canon RP but it is also 1mm wider.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon RP and Leica TL2.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon RP 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 significantly lighter (86g ) than the Canon RP 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 Canon RP has a Full frame sensor and Leica TL2 has a smaller APS-C sensor, Leica TL2's lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will generally be lighter and smaller than the Canon RP lenses.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the EOS RP 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 Canon RP's 3 screen.
On the other hand, Canon RP 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. On the other hand, Leica TL2 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to EOS RP.
