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 S6900 and Sony H70 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon S6900 has external dimensions of 99 x 58 x 28 mm (3.9 x 2.28 x 1.1″) and weighs 181 g (0.40 lb / 6.38 oz) (including batteries). Sony H70 has external dimensions of 102 x 58 x 29 mm (4.02 x 2.28 x 1.14″) and weighs 194 g (0.43 lb / 6.84 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon S6900 and the Sony H70. Nikon S6900 is 3mm narrower and 1mm thinner than Nikon S6900 but they have the same height of 58mm.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon S6900 and Sony H70.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon S6900 and Sony H70.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S6900 is 13g lighter than the Sony H70 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix S6900 nor Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H70 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon S6900 and Sony H70's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Nikon S6900 sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. Sony H70's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to S6900.
