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 L120 and Casio EX-100 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). Casio EX-100 has external dimensions of 119x67x50 mm and weighs 389 g (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon L120 and the Casio EX-100. Casio EX-100 is 10mm shorter and 28mm thinner than Nikon L120 but it is also 9mm wider.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon L120 and Casio EX-100.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Casio EX-100 is 42g lighter than the Nikon L120 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix L120 nor Casio Exilim EX-100 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
Casio EX-100's 3.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon L120's 3" screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Casio EX-100 LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Nikon L120 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to EX-100.
