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 F600 EXR and Sony HX80 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm F600 EXR has external dimensions of 104 x 63 x 33 mm (4.09 x 2.48 x 1.3″) and weighs 215 g (0.47 lb / 7.58 oz) (including batteries). Sony HX80 has external dimensions of 102 x 58 x 36 mm (4.02 x 2.28 x 1.42″) and weighs 245 g (0.54 lb / 8.64 oz) (including batteries).

Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm F600 EXR and Sony HX80.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm F600 EXR is 30g lighter than the Sony HX80 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm FinePix F600 EXR nor Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX80 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 F600 EXR and Sony HX80's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Sony HX80 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Fujifilm F600 EXR has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to HX80.
