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 X-A5 and Canon R50 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm X-A5 has external dimensions of 117 x 68 x 40 mm (4.61 x 2.68 x 1.57″) and weighs 361 g (0.80 lb / 12.73 oz) (including batteries). Canon R50 has external dimensions of 116 x 86 x 69 mm (4.57 x 3.39 x 2.72″) and weighs 375 g (0.83 lb / 13.23 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm X-A5 and the Canon R50. Fujifilm X-A5 is 18mm shorter and 29mm thinner than Canon R50 but it is also 1mm wider.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Fujifilm X-A5 and Canon R50.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm X-A5 and Canon R50.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm X-A5 is 14g lighter than the Canon R50 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Fujifilm X-A5 and Canon R50 have the same APS-C sized sensor, their lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will be similar in size and weight.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm X-A5 nor Canon EOS R50 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 X-A5 and Canon R50's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Fujifilm X-A5 features a
Tilting-only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Canon R50 sports a
Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful, especially for taking selfies and video.
