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 S9900w and Panasonic G2 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). Panasonic G2 has external dimensions of 124 x 84 x 74 mm (4.88 x 3.31 x 2.91″) and weighs 428 g (0.94 lb / 15.10 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm S9900w and the Panasonic G2. Panasonic G2 is 3mm shorter and 42mm thinner than Fujifilm S9900w but it is also 1mm wider. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Fujifilm S9900w has a built-in lens but Panasonic G2 doesn't. Once you put a lens on G2, its thickness will increase significantly.

Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm S9900w and Panasonic G2.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic G2 is significantly lighter (242g ) 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 G2, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm S9900w nor Panasonic Lumix DMC-G2 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 S9900w and Panasonic G2's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Panasonic G2 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. Fujifilm S9900w's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to G2.
