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 L24 and Panasonic TS3 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon L24 has external dimensions of 98 x 61 x 28 mm (3.86 x 2.4 x 1.1″) and weighs 182 g (0.40 lb / 6.42 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic TS3 has external dimensions of 103 x 64 x 27 mm (4.06 x 2.52 x 1.06″) and weighs 197 g (0.43 lb / 6.95 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon L24 and the Panasonic TS3. Nikon L24 is 5mm narrower and 3mm shorter than Panasonic TS3 but it is also 1mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon L24 and Panasonic TS3.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon L24 and Panasonic TS3.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon L24 is 15g lighter than the Panasonic TS3 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TS3, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the L24.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon L24's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Panasonic TS3's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
