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 Q and Leica M Edition 60 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Leica Q has external dimensions of 130 x 80 x 93 mm (5.12 x 3.15 x 3.66″) and weighs 640 g (1.41 lb / 22.58 oz) (including batteries). Leica M Edition 60 has external dimensions of 139 x 80 x 42 mm (5.47 x 3.15 x 1.65″) and weighs 680 g (1.50 lb / 23.99 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Leica Q and the Leica M Edition 60. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Leica Q has a built-in lens but Leica M Edition 60 doesn't. Once you put a lens on M Edition 60, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Leica Q is 40g lighter than the Leica M Edition 60 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on M Edition 60, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the M Edition 60, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the Q Typ 116.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Leica Q and Leica M Edition 60'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.
