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-M1X and Olympus PEN-F side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus E-M1X has external dimensions of 144 x 147 x 75 mm (5.67 x 5.79 x 2.95″) and weighs 997 g (2.20 lb / 35.17 oz) (including batteries). Olympus PEN-F has external dimensions of 125 x 72 x 37 mm (4.92 x 2.83 x 1.46″) and weighs 427 g (0.94 lb / 15.06 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus E-M1X and the Olympus PEN-F. Olympus PEN-F is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 19mm narrower, 75mm shorter and 38mm thinner than Olympus E-M1X.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus PEN-F is significantly lighter (570g ) than the Olympus E-M1X 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-M1X and Olympus PEN-F 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.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the E-M1X has a big advantage over the PEN-F which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus E-M1X and Olympus PEN-F's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Both cameras feature
Fully Articulating screens where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. Fully articulating screens are also useful for taking Selfies and video.
