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 L120 and Canon 700D side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon L120 has external dimensions of 110 x 77 x 78 mm (4.33 x 3.03 x 3.07″) and weighs 431 g (0.95 lb / 15.20 oz) (including batteries). Canon 700D has external dimensions of 133 x 100 x 79 mm (5.24 x 3.94 x 3.11″) and weighs 580 g (1.28 lb / 20.46 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Nikon L120 and Canon 700D. Nikon L120 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 23mm narrower, 23mm shorter and 1mm thinner than Canon 700D. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon L120 has a built-in lens but Canon 700D doesn't. Once you put a lens on 700D, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon L120 is significantly lighter (149g ) than the Canon 700D 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 700D, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither Nikon Coolpix L120 nor Canon EOS 700D (EOS Rebel T5i) 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 L120 and Canon 700D's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3".
On the other hand, Canon 700D sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over the head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. Nikon L120's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to 700D.
