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 Kodak Z5120 and Nikon P500 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Kodak Z5120 has external dimensions of 124 x 91 x 105 mm (4.88 x 3.58 x 4.13″) and weighs 445 g (0.98 lb / 15.70 oz) (including batteries). Nikon P500 has external dimensions of 116 x 84 x 10 mm (4.57 x 3.31 x 4.06″) and weighs 494 g (1.09 lb / 17.43 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Kodak Z5120 and the Nikon P500. Nikon P500 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 8mm narrower, 7mm shorter and 2mm thinner than Kodak Z5120.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Kodak Z5120 and Nikon P500.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Kodak Z5120 and Nikon P500.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Kodak Z5120 is 49g lighter than the Nikon P500 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Kodak EasyShare Z5120 nor Nikon Coolpix P500 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
Kodak Z5120 and Nikon P500's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Nikon P500 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 Kodak Z5120 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to P500.
