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 S2800HD and Samsung EX2F 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). Samsung EX2F has external dimensions of 112 x 62 x 29 mm (4.41 x 2.44 x 1.14″) and weighs 294 g (0.65 lb / 10.37 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the FujiFilm S2800HD and the Samsung EX2F. Samsung EX2F is 12mm shorter and 53mm thinner than FujiFilm S2800HD but it is also 2mm wider.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung EX2F is significantly lighter (143g ) than the FujiFilm S2800HD which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the FujiFilm FinePix S2800HD (FinePix S2900HD) nor Samsung EX2F 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
FujiFilm S2800HD and Samsung EX2F's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Samsung EX2F 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 EX2F.
