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 G7 X MII and Panasonic ZS100 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon G7 X MII has external dimensions of 106 x 61 x 42 mm (4.17 x 2.4 x 1.65″) and weighs 319 g (0.70 lb / 11.25 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic ZS100 has external dimensions of 111 x 65 x 44 mm (4.37 x 2.56 x 1.73″) and weighs 312 g (0.69 lb / 11.01 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon G7 X MII and the Panasonic ZS100. Canon G7 X MII is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 5mm narrower, 4mm shorter and 2mm thinner than Panasonic ZS100.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon G7 X MII and Panasonic ZS100.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon G7 X MII and Panasonic ZS100.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS100 is 7g lighter than the Canon G7 X MII but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II nor Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS100 (Lumix DMC-TZ100) 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 G7 X MII and Panasonic ZS100's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Canon G7 X MII features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Panasonic ZS100 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to G7 X MII.
