Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate FujiFilm S2800HD and Panasonic GH4 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. FujiFilm S2800HD has external dimensions of 110 x 74 x 82 mm (4.33 x 2.91 x 3.23″) and weighs 437 g (0.96 lb / 15.41 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic GH4 has external dimensions of 133 x 93 x 84 mm (5.24 x 3.66 x 3.31″) and weighs 560 g (1.23 lb / 19.75 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front view size comparison of FujiFilm S2800HD and Panasonic GH4. FujiFilm S2800HD is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 23mm narrower, 19mm shorter and 2mm thinner than Panasonic GH4. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since FujiFilm S2800HD has a built-in lens but Panasonic GH4 doesn't. Once you put a lens on GH4, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
FujiFilm S2800HD is significantly lighter (123g ) than the Panasonic GH4 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on GH4, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather sealed body of GH4, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to S2800HD.
LCD Screen Size and Features
FujiFilm S2800HD and Panasonic GH4's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3".
On the other hand, Panasonic GH4 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. FujiFilm S2800HD's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to GH4.
