Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate Nikon S9100 and Nikon 1 V2 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon S9100 has external dimensions of 105 x 62 x 35 mm (4.13 x 2.44 x 1.38″) and weighs 214 g (0.47 lb / 7.55 oz) (including batteries). Nikon 1 V2 has external dimensions of 109 x 82 x 46 mm (4.29 x 3.23 x 1.81″) and weighs 278 g (0.61 lb / 9.81 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Nikon S9100 and Nikon 1 V2. Nikon S9100 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 4mm narrower, 20mm shorter and 11mm thinner than Nikon 1 V2. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon S9100 has a built-in lens but Nikon 1 V2 doesn't. Once you put a lens on 1 V2, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S9100 is significantly lighter (64g ) than the Nikon 1 V2 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on 1 V2, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither Nikon Coolpix S9100 nor Nikon 1 V2 provides any type of weather sealing in their body, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.
