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 V-Lux 20 and Canon S120 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Leica V-Lux 20 has external dimensions of 103 x 60 x 33 mm (4.06 x 2.36 x 1.3″) and weighs 218 g (0.48 lb / 7.69 oz) (including batteries). Canon S120 has external dimensions of 100 x 59 x 29 mm (3.94 x 2.32 x 1.14″) and weighs 217 g (0.48 lb / 7.65 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Leica V-Lux 20 and the Canon S120. Canon S120 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 3mm narrower, 1mm shorter and 4mm thinner than Leica V-Lux 20.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Leica V-Lux 20 and Canon S120.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Leica V-Lux 20 and Canon S120.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon S120 is 1g lighter than the Leica V-Lux 20 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Leica V-Lux 20 nor Canon PowerShot S120 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
Leica V-Lux 20 and Canon S120'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.
