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 SX610 HS and Canon SX600 HS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon SX610 HS has external dimensions of 105 x 61 x 27 mm (4.13 x 2.4 x 1.06″) and weighs 191 g (0.42 lb / 6.74 oz) (including batteries). Canon SX600 HS has external dimensions of 104 x 61 x 26 mm (4.09 x 2.4 x 1.02″) and weighs 188 g (0.41 lb / 6.63 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon SX600 HS is 3g lighter than the Canon SX610 HS but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot SX610 HS nor Canon PowerShot SX600 HS provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing

Canon SX610 HS and Canon SX600 HS's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
