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 JZ200 and Panasonic FH8 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm JZ200 has external dimensions of 100 x 56 x 24 mm (3.94 x 2.2 x 0.94″) and weighs 135 g (0.30 lb / 4.76 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic FH8 has external dimensions of 96 x 57 x 19 mm (3.78 x 2.24 x 0.75″) and weighs 123 g (0.27 lb / 4.34 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic FH8 is 12g lighter than the Fujifilm JZ200 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm FinePix JZ200 nor Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH8 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 JZ200 and Panasonic FH8's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
