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 S800c and Canon G9 X II side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon S800c has external dimensions of 111 x 60 x 27 mm (4.37 x 2.36 x 1.06″) and weighs 184 g (0.41 lb / 6.49 oz) (including batteries). Canon G9 X II has external dimensions of 98 x 58 x 31 mm (3.86 x 2.28 x 1.22″) and weighs 206 g (0.45 lb / 7.27 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon S800c and the Canon G9 X II. Canon G9 X II is 13mm narrower and 2mm shorter than Nikon S800c but it is also 4mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon S800c and Canon G9 X II.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon S800c and Canon G9 X II.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S800c is 22g lighter than the Canon G9 X II but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix S800c nor Canon PowerShot G9 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. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon S800c's 3.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon G9 X II's 3 screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
