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 TL2 and Sony HX350 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Leica TL2 has external dimensions of 134 x 69 x 33 mm (5.28 x 2.72 x 1.3″) and weighs 399 g (0.88 lb / 14.07 oz) (including batteries). Sony HX350 has external dimensions of 130 x 93 x 103 mm (5.12 x 3.66 x 4.06″) and weighs 652 g (1.44 lb / 23.00 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Leica TL2 and the Sony HX350. Leica TL2 is 24mm shorter and 70mm thinner than Sony HX350 but it is also 4mm wider. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Sony HX350 has a built-in lens but Leica TL2 doesn't. Once you put a lens on , its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Leica TL2 and Sony HX350.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Leica TL2 and Sony HX350.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Leica TL2 is significantly lighter (253g ) than the Sony HX350 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
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 , the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Leica TL2 nor Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX350 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.
