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 D10 and Panasonic FZ200 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon D10 has external dimensions of 104 x 67 x 49 mm (4.09 x 2.64 x 1.93″) and weighs 190 g (0.42 lb / 6.70 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic FZ200 has external dimensions of 125 x 87 x 110 mm (4.92 x 3.43 x 4.33″) and weighs 588 g (1.30 lb / 20.74 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon D10 and the Panasonic FZ200. Canon D10 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 21mm narrower, 20mm shorter and 61mm thinner than Panasonic FZ200.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon D10 is significantly lighter (398g ) than the Panasonic FZ200 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the D10 has a big advantage over the FZ200 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic FZ200's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon D10's 2.5" screen.
Moreover, Panasonic FZ200 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, Canon D10 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to FZ200.
