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-E1 and Nikon P310 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm X-E1 has external dimensions of 129 x 75 x 38 mm (5.08 x 2.95 x 1.5″) and weighs 350 g (0.77 lb / 12.35 oz) (including batteries). Nikon P310 has external dimensions of 103 x 58 x 32 mm (4.06 x 2.28 x 1.26″) and weighs 194 g (0.43 lb / 6.84 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm X-E1 and the Nikon P310. Nikon P310 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 26mm narrower, 17mm shorter and 6mm thinner than Fujifilm X-E1. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon P310 has a built-in lens but Fujifilm X-E1 doesn't. Once you put a lens on X-E1, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Fujifilm X-E1 and Nikon P310.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm X-E1 and Nikon P310.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon P310 is significantly lighter (156g ) than the Fujifilm X-E1 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-E1, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm X-E1 nor Nikon Coolpix P310 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
Nikon P310's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm X-E1's 2.8" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
