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 X30 and Panasonic LX100 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm X30 has external dimensions of 119 x 72 x 60 mm (4.69 x 2.83 x 2.36″) and weighs 423 g (0.93 lb / 14.92 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic LX100 has external dimensions of 115 x 66 x 55 mm (4.53 x 2.6 x 2.17″) and weighs 393 g (0.87 lb / 13.86 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm X30 and the Panasonic LX100. Panasonic LX100 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 4mm narrower, 6mm shorter and 5mm thinner than Fujifilm X30.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Fujifilm X30 and Panasonic LX100.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm X30 and Panasonic LX100.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic LX100 is 30g lighter than the Fujifilm X30 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm X30 nor Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100 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 X30 and Panasonic LX100's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Fujifilm X30 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 Panasonic LX100 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to X30.
