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 Nikon A1000 and Fujifilm S9400W side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions.

Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon A1000 and Fujifilm S9400W.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon A1000 is significantly lighter (340g ) than the Fujifilm S9400W which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix A1000 nor Fujifilm FinePix S9400W 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
Nikon A1000 and Fujifilm S9400W's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Nikon A1000 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Fujifilm S9400W has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to A1000.
