Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate Fujifilm S9900w and Fujifilm X-T1 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm S9900w has external dimensions of 123 x 87 x 116 mm (4.84 x 3.43 x 4.57″) and weighs 670 g (1.48 lb / 23.63 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm X-T1 has external dimensions of 129 x 90 x 47 mm (5.08 x 3.54 x 1.84″) and weighs 440 g (0.97 lb / 15.52 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Fujifilm S9900w and Fujifilm X-T1. Fujifilm S9900w is 6mm narrower and 3mm shorter than Fujifilm X-T1 but it is also 69mm thicker. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Fujifilm S9900w has a built-in lens but Fujifilm X-T1 doesn't. Once you put a lens on X-T1, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm X-T1 is significantly lighter (230g ) than the Fujifilm S9900w 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 X-T1, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather sealed body of X-T1, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to S9900w.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Fujifilm S9900w and Fujifilm X-T1's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3.00".
On the other hand, Fujifilm X-T1 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over the head levels whereas the Fujifilm S9900w has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to X-T1.
