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 P610 and Canon 60D side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon P610 has external dimensions of 125 x 85 x 107 mm (4.92 x 3.35 x 4.21″) and weighs 565 g (1.25 lb / 19.93 oz) (including batteries). Canon 60D has external dimensions of 145 x 106 x 79 mm (5.71 x 4.17 x 3.11″) and weighs 755 g (1.66 lb / 26.63 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon P610 and the Canon 60D. Nikon P610 is 20mm narrower and 21mm shorter than Canon 60D but it is also 28mm thicker. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon P610 has a built-in lens but Canon 60D doesn't. Once you put a lens on 60D, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon P610 and Canon 60D.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon P610 and Canon 60D.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon P610 is significantly lighter (190g ) than the Canon 60D which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on 60D, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the 60D, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the P610.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon P610 and Canon 60D's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Both cameras feature
Fully Articulating screens where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. Fully articulating screens are also useful for taking Selfies and video.
