Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate Nikon 1 J4 and Fujifilm F200EXR side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon 1 J4 has external dimensions of 100 x 60 x 29 mm (3.92 x 2.36 x 1.12″) and weighs 232 g (0.51 lb / 8.18 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm F200EXR has external dimensions of 98 x 59 x 23 mm (3.86 x 2.32 x 0.91″) and weighs 205 g (0.45 lb / 7.23 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Nikon 1 J4 and Fujifilm F200EXR. Fujifilm F200EXR is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 2mm narrower, 1mm shorter and 6mm thinner than Nikon 1 J4. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Fujifilm F200EXR has a built-in lens but Nikon 1 J4 doesn't. Once you put a lens on 1 J4, its thickness will increase significantly.

Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon 1 J4 and Fujifilm F200EXR.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm F200EXR is 27g lighter than the Nikon 1 J4 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 1 J4, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither Nikon 1 J4 nor Fujifilm FinePix F200EXR provides any type of weather sealing in their body, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon 1 J4 and Fujifilm F200EXR's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3".
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
Nikon 1 J4 has a 18.0MP 1" (13.2 x 8.8 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Expeed 4 processor. On the other hand, Fujifilm F200EXR has a 12.0MP 1/1.6" (8 x 6 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Nikon 1 J4's sensor provides 6MP more than Fujifilm F200EXR's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely.
On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.
Below you can see the 1 J4 and F200EXR sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Nikon 1 J4 and Fujifilm F200EXR Cameras
As seen above, Nikon 1 J4 has a 2.4x Larger sensor area than Fujifilm F200EXR. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in same focal length and aperture.
