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 Leica C-Lux and Canon G1 X III side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Leica C-Lux has external dimensions of 113 x 67 x 46 mm (4.45 x 2.64 x 1.81″) and weighs 340 g (0.75 lb / 11.99 oz) (including batteries). Canon G1 X III has external dimensions of 115 x 78 x 51 mm (4.53 x 3.07 x 2.01″) and weighs 399 g (0.88 lb / 14.07 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Leica C-Lux and the Canon G1 X III. Leica C-Lux is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 2mm narrower, 11mm shorter and 5mm thinner than Canon G1 X III.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Leica C-Lux and Canon G1 X III.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Leica C-Lux and Canon G1 X III.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Leica C-Lux is significantly lighter (59g ) than the Canon G1 X III which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the G1 X III, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the C-Lux.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Leica C-Lux and Canon G1 X III's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Canon G1 X III sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. Leica C-Lux's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to G1 X III.
