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 B500 and Samsung WB1100F side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon B500 has external dimensions of 114 x 78 x 95 mm (4.49 x 3.07 x 3.74″) and weighs 541 g (1.19 lb / 19.08 oz) (including batteries). Samsung WB1100F has external dimensions of 125 x 87 x 96 mm (4.92 x 3.43 x 3.78″) and weighs 512 g (1.13 lb / 18.06 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon B500 and the Samsung WB1100F. Nikon B500 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 11mm narrower, 9mm shorter and 1mm thinner than Samsung WB1100F.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon B500 and Samsung WB1100F.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon B500 and Samsung WB1100F.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung WB1100F is 29g lighter than the Nikon B500 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix B500 nor Samsung WB1100F 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 B500 and Samsung WB1100F's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Nikon B500 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 Samsung WB1100F has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to B500.
