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 SX70 HS and Fujifilm HS35EXR side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon SX70 HS has external dimensions of 127 x 91 x 117 mm (5 x 3.58 x 4.61″) and weighs 608 g (1.34 lb / 21.45 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm HS35EXR has external dimensions of 131 x 97 x 126 mm (5.16 x 3.82 x 4.96″) and weighs 687 g (1.51 lb / 24.23 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon SX70 HS and the Fujifilm HS35EXR. Canon SX70 HS is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 4mm narrower, 6mm shorter and 9mm thinner than Fujifilm HS35EXR.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon SX70 HS and Fujifilm HS35EXR.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon SX70 HS and Fujifilm HS35EXR.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon SX70 HS is 79g lighter than the Fujifilm HS35EXR but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot SX70 HS nor Fujifilm FinePix HS35EXR 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 SX70 HS and Fujifilm HS35EXR's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Fujifilm HS35EXR features a
Tilting-only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Canon SX70 HS sports a
Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful, especially for taking selfies and video.
