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 A3200 IS and Pentax Q-S1 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon A3200 IS has external dimensions of 95 x 57 x 24 mm (3.74 x 2.24 x 0.94″) and weighs 149 g (0.33 lb / 5.26 oz) (including batteries). Pentax Q-S1 has external dimensions of 105 x 58 x 34 mm (4.13 x 2.28 x 1.34″) and weighs 203 g (0.45 lb / 7.16 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon A3200 IS and the Pentax Q-S1. Canon A3200 IS is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 10mm narrower, 1mm shorter and 10mm thinner than Pentax Q-S1. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Canon A3200 IS has a built-in lens but Pentax Q-S1 doesn't. Once you put a lens on Q-S1, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon A3200 IS and Pentax Q-S1.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon A3200 IS is significantly lighter (54g ) than the Pentax Q-S1 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 Q-S1, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot A3200 IS nor Pentax Q-S1 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
Pentax Q-S1's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon A3200 IS's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
