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 XF10 and Panasonic LX10 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm XF10 has external dimensions of 113 x 64 x 41 mm (4.45 x 2.52 x 1.61″) and weighs 279 g (0.62 lb / 9.84 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic LX10 has external dimensions of 106 x 60 x 42 mm (4.17 x 2.36 x 1.65″) and weighs 310 g (0.68 lb / 10.93 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm XF10 and the Panasonic LX10. Panasonic LX10 is 7mm narrower and 4mm shorter than Fujifilm XF10 but it is also 1mm thicker.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm XF10 and Panasonic LX10.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm XF10 is 31g lighter than the Panasonic LX10 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm XF10 nor Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX10 (Lumix DMC-LX15) 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 XF10 and Panasonic LX10's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Panasonic LX10 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 XF10 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to LX10.
