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 L110 and Panasonic ZS8 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon L110 has external dimensions of 109 x 74 x 78 mm (4.29 x 2.91 x 3.07″) and weighs 406 g (0.90 lb / 14.32 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic ZS8 has external dimensions of 105 x 58 x 33 mm (4.13 x 2.28 x 1.3″) and weighs 210 g (0.46 lb / 7.41 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS8 is significantly lighter (196g ) than the Nikon L110 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
