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 A900 and Canon M50 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon A900 has external dimensions of 113 x 67 x 40 mm (4.45 x 2.64 x 1.57″) and weighs 289 g (0.64 lb / 10.19 oz) (including batteries). Canon M50 has external dimensions of 116 x 88 x 59 mm (4.57 x 3.46 x 2.32″) and weighs 390 g (0.86 lb / 13.76 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon A900 and the Canon M50. Nikon A900 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 3mm narrower, 21mm shorter and 19mm thinner than Canon M50. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon A900 has a built-in lens but Canon M50 doesn't. Once you put a lens on M50, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon A900 and Canon M50.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon A900 and Canon M50.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon A900 is significantly lighter (101g ) than the Canon M50 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 M50, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix A900 nor Canon EOS M50 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 A900 and Canon M50's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Nikon A900 features a
Tilting-only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Canon M50 sports a
Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful, especially for taking selfies and video.
