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 S33 and Canon ELPH 510 HS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon S33 has external dimensions of 110 x 66 x 27 mm (4.33 x 2.6 x 1.06″) and weighs 221 g (0.49 lb / 7.80 oz) (including batteries). Canon ELPH 510 HS has external dimensions of 99 x 59 x 22 mm (3.9 x 2.32 x 0.87″) and weighs 206 g (0.45 lb / 7.27 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon S33 and the Canon ELPH 510 HS. Canon ELPH 510 HS is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 11mm narrower, 7mm shorter and 5mm thinner than Nikon S33.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon S33 and Canon ELPH 510 HS.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon S33 and Canon ELPH 510 HS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon ELPH 510 HS is 15g lighter than the Nikon S33 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the S33 has a big advantage over the ELPH 510 HS which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon ELPH 510 HS's 3.20" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon S33's 2.7 screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
