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 SX20 IS and Casio EX-ZS10 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon SX20 IS has external dimensions of 128 x 88 x 87 mm (5.04 x 3.46 x 3.43″) and weighs 600 g (1.32 lb / 21.16 oz) (including batteries). Casio EX-ZS10 has external dimensions of 103 x 59 x 20 mm (4.06 x 2.32 x 0.79″) and weighs (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon SX20 IS and the Casio EX-ZS10. Casio EX-ZS10 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 25mm narrower, 29mm shorter and 67mm thinner than Canon SX20 IS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Casio EX-ZS10 is 600g lighter than the Canon SX20 IS but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot SX20 IS nor Casio Exilim EX-ZS10 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 SX20 IS's 2.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Casio EX-ZS10's screen.
Moreover, Canon SX20 IS 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, Casio EX-ZS10 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to SX20 IS.
