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 T500 and Canon 700D side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm T500 has external dimensions of and weighs 136 g (including batteries). Canon 700D has external dimensions of 133 x 100 x 79 mm (5.24 x 3.94 x 3.11″) and weighs 580 g (1.28 lb / 20.46 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm T500 and the Canon 700D. Fujifilm T500 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 34mm narrower, 43mm shorter and 53mm thinner than Canon 700D. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Fujifilm T500 has a built-in lens but Canon 700D doesn't. Once you put a lens on 700D, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Fujifilm T500 and Canon 700D.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm T500 and Canon 700D.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm T500 is significantly lighter (444g ) than the Canon 700D which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on 700D, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm FinePix T500 nor Canon EOS 700D (EOS Rebel T5i) 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
Canon 700D's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm T500's 2.7 screen.
Moreover, Canon 700D 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. On the other hand, Fujifilm T500 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to 700D.
