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 W300 and Olympus TG-850 iHS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon W300 has external dimensions of 112 x 66 x 29 mm (4.41 x 2.6 x 1.14″) and weighs 231 g (0.51 lb / 8.15 oz) (including batteries). Olympus TG-850 iHS has external dimensions of 110 x 64 x 28 mm (4.33 x 2.52 x 1.09″) and weighs 218 g (0.48 lb / 7.69 oz) (including batteries).

Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon W300 and Olympus TG-850 iHS.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon W300 and Olympus TG-850 iHS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus TG-850 iHS is 13g lighter than the Nikon W300 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon W300 and Olympus TG-850 iHS's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Olympus TG-850 iHS features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Nikon W300 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to TG-850 iHS.
