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 Olympus E-M1 III and Panasonic GH5 II side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus E-M1 III has external dimensions of 134 x 91 x 69 mm (5.28 x 3.58 x 2.72″) and weighs 580 g (1.28 lb / 20.46 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic GH5 II has external dimensions of 139 x 98 x 87 mm (5.47 x 3.86 x 3.43″) and weighs 727 g (1.60 lb / 25.64 oz) (including batteries).

Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus E-M1 III and Panasonic GH5 II.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus E-M1 III and Panasonic GH5 II.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus E-M1 III is significantly lighter (147g ) than the Panasonic GH5 II which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Olympus E-M1 III and Panasonic GH5 II have the same Micro Four Thirds lens mount and Four Thirds sized sensors, lenses will not be a differentiator on total size of the system.

Both the E-M1 III and the GH5 II have weather sealings in their bodies, making them resistant to water and dust.
