Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.

Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot SX710 HS nor Canon PowerShot SX610 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 SX710 HS and Canon SX610 HS's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
