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 Nikon P530 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). Nikon P530 has external dimensions of 123 x 84 x 98 mm (4.83 x 3.31 x 3.87″) and weighs 494 g (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon L120 and the Nikon P530. Nikon L120 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 13mm narrower, 7mm shorter and 20mm thinner than Nikon P530.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon L120 and Nikon P530.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon L120 and Nikon P530.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon L120 is 63g lighter than the Nikon P530 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix L120 nor Nikon Coolpix P530 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

Nikon L120 and Nikon P530's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
