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 L31 and Olympus 7010 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon L31 has external dimensions of 96 x 59 x 29 mm (3.78 x 2.32 x 1.14″) and weighs 160 g (0.35 lb / 5.64 oz) (including batteries). Olympus 7010 has external dimensions of 98 x 56 x 26 mm (3.86 x 2.2 x 1.02″) and weighs 145 g (0.32 lb / 5.11 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon L31 and the Olympus 7010. Olympus 7010 is 3mm shorter and 3mm thinner than Nikon L31 but it is also 2mm wider.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon L31 and Olympus 7010.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon L31 and Olympus 7010.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus 7010 is 15g lighter than the Nikon L31 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix L31 nor Olympus Stylus 7010 (mju 7010) 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 L31 and Olympus 7010's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 2.70 inches.
