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 JV150 and Olympus XZ-2 iHS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm JV150 has external dimensions of 93 x 55 x 21 mm (3.66 x 2.17 x 0.83″) and weighs 126 g (0.28 lb / 4.44 oz) (including batteries). Olympus XZ-2 iHS has external dimensions of 113 x 65 x 48 mm (4.45 x 2.56 x 1.89″) and weighs 346 g (0.76 lb / 12.20 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm JV150 and the Olympus XZ-2 iHS. Fujifilm JV150 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 20mm narrower, 10mm shorter and 27mm thinner than Olympus XZ-2 iHS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm JV150 is significantly lighter (220g ) than the Olympus XZ-2 iHS which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm FinePix JV150 nor Olympus XZ-2 iHS 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
Olympus XZ-2 iHS's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm JV150's 2.7" screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Olympus XZ-2 iHS LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Fujifilm JV150 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to XZ-2 iHS.
