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 Panasonic ZS300 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). Panasonic ZS300 has external dimensions of 111 x 66 x 45 mm (4.37 x 2.6 x 1.77″) and weighs 337 g (0.74 lb / 11.89 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Leica C-Lux and the Panasonic ZS300. Panasonic ZS300 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 2mm narrower, 1mm shorter and 1mm thinner than Leica C-Lux.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS300 is 3g lighter than the Leica C-Lux but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Leica C-Lux nor Panasonic Lumix DC-ZS300 (Lumix DC-TZ300) provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing
LCD Screen Size and Features
Leica C-Lux and Panasonic ZS300's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
