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 ELPH 150 IS and Canon SX60 HS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon ELPH 150 IS has external dimensions of 95 x 57 x 24 mm (3.74 x 2.24 x 0.94″) and weighs 142 g (0.31 lb / 5.01 oz) (including batteries). Canon SX60 HS has external dimensions of 128 x 93 x 114 mm (5.04 x 3.66 x 4.49″) and weighs 650 g (1.43 lb / 22.93 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon ELPH 150 IS and the Canon SX60 HS. Canon ELPH 150 IS is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 33mm narrower, 36mm shorter and 90mm thinner than Canon SX60 HS.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon ELPH 150 IS and Canon SX60 HS.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon ELPH 150 IS and Canon SX60 HS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon ELPH 150 IS is significantly lighter (508g ) than the Canon SX60 HS which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot ELPH 150 IS (IXUS 155) nor Canon PowerShot SX60 HS 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
Canon SX60 HS's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon ELPH 150 IS's 2.7 screen.
Moreover, Canon SX60 HS 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 ELPH 150 IS has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to SX60 HS.
