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 S1 and Panasonic ZS60 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm S1 has external dimensions of 133 x 91 x 110 mm (5.24 x 3.58 x 4.33″) and weighs 680 g (1.50 lb / 23.99 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic ZS60 has external dimensions of 112 x 64 x 38 mm (4.41 x 2.52 x 1.5″) and weighs 282 g (0.62 lb / 9.95 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm S1 and the Panasonic ZS60. Panasonic ZS60 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 21mm narrower, 27mm shorter and 72mm thinner than Fujifilm S1.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS60 is significantly lighter (398g ) than the Fujifilm S1 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the S1 has a big advantage over the ZS60 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Fujifilm S1 and Panasonic ZS60's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Fujifilm S1 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. Panasonic ZS60's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to S1.
