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 G5 X and Canon SX410 IS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon G5 X has external dimensions of 112 x 76 x 44 mm (4.41 x 2.99 x 1.73″) and weighs 353 g (0.78 lb / 12.45 oz) (including batteries). Canon SX410 IS has external dimensions of 104 x 69 x 85 mm (4.09 x 2.72 x 3.35″) and weighs 325 g (0.72 lb / 11.46 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon G5 X and the Canon SX410 IS. Canon SX410 IS is 8mm narrower and 7mm shorter than Canon G5 X but it is also 41mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon G5 X and Canon SX410 IS.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon G5 X and Canon SX410 IS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon SX410 IS is 28g lighter than the Canon G5 X but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot G5 X nor Canon PowerShot SX410 IS 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 G5 X and Canon SX410 IS's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Canon G5 X 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. Canon SX410 IS's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to G5 X.
