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 SL300 and Fujifilm S4500 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm SL300 has external dimensions of 122 x 93 x 100 mm (4.8 x 3.66 x 3.94″) and weighs 510 g (1.12 lb / 17.99 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm S4500 has external dimensions of 118 x 81 x 100 mm (4.65 x 3.19 x 3.94″) and weighs 543 g (1.20 lb / 19.15 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm SL300 and the Fujifilm S4500. Fujifilm S4500 is 4mm narrower and 12mm shorter than Fujifilm SL300 but they have the same thickness of 100mm.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Fujifilm SL300 and Fujifilm S4500.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm SL300 and Fujifilm S4500.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm SL300 is 33g lighter than the Fujifilm S4500 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm FinePix SL300 nor Fujifilm FinePix S4500 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

Fujifilm SL300 and Fujifilm S4500's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
