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 P950 and Canon G5 X MII side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions.

Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon P950 and the Canon G5 X MII. Canon G5 X MII is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 29mm narrower, 49mm shorter and 104mm thinner than Nikon P950.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon P950 and Canon G5 X MII.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon P950 and Canon G5 X MII.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon G5 X MII is significantly lighter (665g ) than the Nikon P950 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix P950 nor Canon PowerShot G5 X Mark II provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.
