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 Nikon S8000 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). Nikon S8000 has external dimensions of 103 x 57 x 27 mm (4.06 x 2.24 x 1.06″) and weighs 183 g (0.40 lb / 6.46 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon S33 and the Nikon S8000. Nikon S8000 is 7mm narrower and 9mm shorter than Nikon S33 but they have the same thickness of 27mm.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon S33 and Nikon S8000.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon S33 and Nikon S8000.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S8000 is significantly lighter (38g ) than the Nikon S33 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the S33 has a big advantage over the S8000 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon S8000's 3.00" 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.
