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 FujiFilm AV200 and Panasonic FH3 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. FujiFilm AV200 has external dimensions of 93 x 60 x 28 mm (3.66 x 2.36 x 1.1″) and weighs 168 g (0.37 lb / 5.93 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic FH3 is 3g lighter than the FujiFilm AV200 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the FujiFilm FinePix AV200 (FinePix AV205) nor Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH3 (Lumix DMC-FS11) 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
LCD Screen Size and Features
FujiFilm AV200 and Panasonic FH3's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 2.70 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
