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 Sony WX5 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). Sony WX5 has external dimensions of 92 x 52 x 22 mm (3.62 x 2.05 x 0.87″) and weighs 146 g (0.32 lb / 5.15 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon S33 and the Sony WX5. Sony WX5 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 18mm narrower, 14mm shorter and 5mm thinner than Nikon S33.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon S33 and Sony WX5.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony WX5 is significantly lighter (75g ) 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 WX5 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Sony WX5's 2.80" 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.
