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 L20 and Fujifilm X30 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon L20 has external dimensions of 61 x 97 x 29 mm (2.4 x 3.82 x 1.14″) and weighs 135 g (0.30 lb / 4.76 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm X30 has external dimensions of 119 x 72 x 60 mm (4.69 x 2.83 x 2.36″) and weighs 423 g (0.93 lb / 14.92 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon L20 and the Fujifilm X30. Nikon L20 is 58mm narrower and 31mm thinner than Fujifilm X30 but it is also 25mm taller.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon L20 and Fujifilm X30.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon L20 is significantly lighter (288g ) than the Fujifilm X30 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix L20 nor Fujifilm X30 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 L20 and Fujifilm X30's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Fujifilm X30 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 Nikon L20 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to X30.
