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 Panasonic TS25 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). Panasonic TS25 has external dimensions of 104 x 58 x 20 mm (4.09 x 2.28 x 0.79″) and weighs 144 g (0.32 lb / 5.08 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon SX70 HS and the Panasonic TS25. Panasonic TS25 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 23mm narrower, 33mm shorter and 97mm thinner than Canon SX70 HS.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon SX70 HS and Panasonic TS25.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon SX70 HS and Panasonic TS25.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic TS25 is significantly lighter (464g ) than the Canon SX70 HS which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TS25, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the SX70 HS.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon SX70 HS's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Panasonic TS25's 2.7" screen.
Moreover, Canon SX70 HS 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, Panasonic TS25 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to SX70 HS.
